e-tid - BA debuts 2012 ad on social media | Travelled | Scoop.it
British Airways elected to launch its London 2012 Olympic advertising campaign yesterday on Facebook, rather than on TV.
 
The airline also featured the advert on Google+ before it was screened during ITV1’s Coronation Street last night.

The 60-second advert uses BA’s ‘To Fly. To Serve’ slogan and looks at the build-up to the London Games through the eyes of a little girl.

KLM Surprise Foursquare

In the past weeks we have been committing little acts of kindness because we wanted to discover how happiness spreads. Have a look to see what happened..

 For four weeks in November 2010, Dutch airline KLM ran an experimental campaign called How Happiness Spreads, where it employed a “Surprise Team” to give passengers tailored, unexpected gifts at the airport.

Combining with location-based game Foursquare, as soon as someone checked-in at a KLM Foursquare location within its network of airports the Surprise Team went online to find more background information about the person, decided upon a suitable gift and gave it them before they flew.

For instance, one traveler tweeted he would miss a PSV Eindhoven football game while he was in New York. The Surprise Team, accordingly, gave him a Lonely Planet guide book of NYC with all the football bars highlighted in blue.
