AUSTRALIA. To mark its 17th anniversary today, leading airline Jetstar has created an eye-catching full media takeover of two of Australia’s busiest rail stations, Flinders Street Station (Melbourne) and Central Station (Sydney).
In partnership with advertising services specialist oOh!media, over 50 digital screens in the stations are being used to track an aircraft’s flight path, with free flight vouchers ranging from A$50 to A$500 for those who can scan and ‘catch’ the plane. Other partners in the 24-hour initiative include media and creative agencies Thinkerbell and Wavemaker.
Jetstar Chief Customer Officer Alan McIntyre said: “We’re excited to be sharing our birthday celebrations with our customers at a time when demand for leisure travel is at the strongest it’s ever been. There’s no doubt there’ll be lots of keen travellers at Flinders Street and Central Stations to snap up these travel vouchers to put towards their next trip.”
oOh!media Chief Content, Marketing and Creative Officer Neil Ackland said: “When it comes to reaching people at scale and engaging Australians at key moments throughout their day, there’s simply no substitute for Out of Home media. Big, bold and technologically creative, this campaign showcases Jetstar in a unique and innovative way, and is sure to drive engagement, brand recognition and bookings. It’s been a real highlight to work with Jetstar, Thinkerbell and Wavemaker on such a fun campaign as people start flying again in greater numbers.”
Adam Ferrier, Chief Thinker at Thinkerbell, added: “It’s been great working with Jetstar to shake up Australia’s commute and remind everyone that a relaxing holiday is only a few clicks away. Using all the station media so it’s all joined up to create a completely immersive customer experience is pretty fun.”
