| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | To support encyclopedic discussion of this work in this article. The illustration is specifically needed to support the following point(s): This image clearly demonstrates the airlines that were involved in starting the Star Alliance in 1997. It also shows the fleet history of the airlines at the time; Air Canada has since retired their A340s, for example. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
As this image is of a specific event held at the very start of Star Alliance's existence, it is irreplaceable as the event only happened once. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | This image will only be used on the Star Alliance article, and only one use of the image will be present there. Should this image be required for further articles, additional fair use rationale will be sought. |
