'''Intersun''' is the name of a starline company in operation throughout the [[Twelve Colonies]].


'''Eversun''' is the name of a starline company in operation throughout the [[The Twelve Colonies of Kobol|Twelve Colonies]].
''Starlines are analogous to airlines such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northwest_Airlines Northwest Airlines] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Airlines American Airlines] of the real-world Earth.''


Eversun apparently offered many flights to and from cities scattered about the Twelve Colonies. Almost all of their passenger liners were likely [[FTL]]-capable to handle the distances between each colony, but there were likely [[sublight]] passenger shuttles to move supersonically or hypersonically across a Colonial world from city to city.

Intersun apparently offered many flights to and from cities scattered about the Twelve Colonies. Almost all of their passenger liners were likely to be [[FTL]]-capable to handle the distances between each colony, but as with real-world Earth airlines, there were likely [[sublight]] passenger shuttles to move supersonically or hypersonically across a Colonial world from city to city.


''[[Colonial One]]'' was operated by Eversun as ''Colonial Heavy 798'' and operated under [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprican registry]]. Before the Cylon attack it was chartered by the Colonial Government (thus its flight designation) to ferry [[Laura Roslin]], other minor officials, and the [[Fleet News Service|members of the Colonial press]] to ''{{RDM|Galactica}}'' for its decommissioning ceremony. ''Colonial Heavy 798'' is re-designated ''Colonial One'' by its pilot after Laura Roslin is sworn-in as President of the Twelve Colonies after the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|Cylon attacks]]. This starliner becomes President Roslin's principal residence and office.
Of the Intersun starliners, viewers have seen:


While Colonial Heavy 798 was offworld during the attacks, another Eversun starliner is seen fleeing Caprica City shortly after the destruction of the city. It is unknown what happens to this particular liner, it is assumed to be FTL capable, yet, it is not seen shots of the fleet. It could have been destroyed before it was able to reach Roslin's fleet or another possibility is it joined with the fleet ''{{RDM|Pegasus}}'' found, and later abandoned. {{TRS|The Plan}}.

:''Colonial Heavy 798'' was the flight number for a small Intersun liner of [[The Twelve Colonies#Caprica|Caprican registry]] chartered by the Colonial Government (thus its flight designation) to ferry [[Laura Roslin]], other minor officials, and the [[Fleet News Service|members of the Colonial press]] to [[Original battlestar (RDM)|battlestar]] ''[[Galactica]]'' for its decommissioning ceremony. ''Colonial Heavy 798'' was redesignated ''Colonial One'' by its pilot after Laura Roslin was sworn-in as President of the Twelve Colonies after the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|Cylon attacks]]. This starliner becomes President Roslin's principal residence and office.

== Notes ==
:The ''Olympic Carrier'' is a large Intersun luxury passenger liner that seated as many as 1,000 passengers comfortably. Overpacked with other refugees after the exodus from the destroyed worlds of the Twelve Colonies, the ''Carrier'' was known to have 1,345 passengers onboard when it failed to make a Jump with the [[Fleet]] as they continued their flight from a relentless Cylon force. When it returned to the Fleet, it had apparently been compromised by Cylon forces and was armed with a nuclear warhead. ''Galactica's'' Vipers destroy the ship to prevent it from threatening the Fleet ([[33]]).


* Starlines are analogous to airlines such as [[w:Northwest Airlines|Northwest Airlines]] or [[w:American Airlines|American Airlines]] of the real-world [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]].
* A discrepancy exists between the "Eversun" logo on the CGI model and the various physical signage, including the uniforms of ''Colonial One'''s [[Colonial One captain|captain]] and crew members. Both the service trays and the patches read "Eversun," while the CGI model has the Intersun logo. This is a result of a mix-up. Due to the prevalence of the Eversun name on the set pieces and uniforms, preference is given to the "Eversun" name.
* The ''[[Zephyr]]'' also carries the incorrect Intersun logo on its rotating ring section.
