  • Virgin America Problem How Does an Airline Company Share Its In-Flight Experience with People on the Ground?
    OOH Case Study Virgin America Problem How does an airline company share its in-flight experience with people on the ground? Solution Use a landmark OOH location to amplify a social media cam- paign. Background Virgin America attracts an especially social group of flyers. We call them the creative class: people who live a curated, enter- tainment-rich, trend-forward lifestyle and like to broadcast it to all of their followers. So when they fly Virgin America (complete with moodlighting, WiFi, and live sports and food on demand), they can’t help but share. In fact, on almost every flight, Virgin America flyers post about their experiences so their friends can see how they fly. The challenge was getting the word out to a broader audience about how amazing the flying experience is. Virgin America had always used OOH to spread the word, but we wanted to do something bigger: we wanted to consolidate our social flyers on a highly visible platform to bring the Virgin America experience to the masses. Objective The objective was, simply, to build brand and product awareness with the creative class, our unique breed of flyers who find the likes of United and American a little tired. We focus more on behavioral and attitudinal characteristics of our prospects than demographics; but in general, this audience falls within the standard demographic segment of adults 25–54. Strategy Once people fly Virgin America, they don’t go back. Customer satisfaction is high, with more than 80 percent planning to book again in the next six months. The problem is that those who haven’t flown us believe every airline is the same; they don’t know what they are missing out on when they don’t fly Virgin America.
