I am a bit partial to the Philippine Airline livery. It's simple yet stands out.

It's difficult to think of any livery on an A340 that doesn't look good, but some are just simply stunning.

Etihad

Probably my personal favourite liveries are Lufthansa and Cathay Pacific. Lufthansa are crisp and clean and probably win the award for keeping the cleanest world fleet of Airbus A340's.
