Expedia’s is launching a luggage tag campaign, which uses airport luggage tag IATA codes to create travel related messages.
Fans of the Expedia.co.uk Facebook page can create their own code combinations, using over 9,500 available IATA codes. Individual combinations and messages can be shared with friends, with stand-out creations having the chance to feature as part of the ongoing advertising campaign and win a holiday.
Each week, a submission chosen at random will win a £250 holiday voucher and at the end of the four week campaign the fan with the phrase most creative and relevant to travel will win a £2,000 Expedia holiday, and may see their combination turned into an above-the-live advertisement.
“With thousands of IATA codes to choose from, there are so many funny and travel-related combinations that can be made three letters at a time. At one point we had over 30 combinations mocked-up, but not all of them could make the cut,” said Rebecca McKee, Senior Marketing Manager, Expedia.co.uk.
The luggage tag creative, inspired by copywriter Jon Morgan and art director Mike Watson at Ogilvy & Mather, offers strong opportunities for more responsive and tactical advertising.
