Jetstar turns Australia’s busiest train stations into airports in new campaign via Thinkerbell

Today is Jetstar’s 17th birthday. And to celebrate, Jetstar is asking commuters who catch a train, to ‘catch a plane’ instead in a new campaign via Thinkerbell, oOh!media and Wavemaker.

 

In a remarkable full media takeover of two of Australia’s most prominent and iconic stations, over 50 digital screens in the station are being used to track an aircraft’s flight path, with free flight vouchers for those who can scan and catch the plane. Every available screen across Flinders Street Station (Melbourne) and Central Station (Sydney) will be working together to help passengers catch vouchers ranging from $50-$500.

Says Alan McIntyre, chief customer officer, Jetstar: “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.”

The activation utilises every digital oOh!media screen across both stations for 24 hours.

Says Neil Ackland, chief content, marketing and creative officer, oOh!media: “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.”

Says Adam Ferrier, chief thinker at Thinkerbell: “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.”
