The magazine is dedicated to telling the stories of interesting Australian people, and is a publication that aims to explore the industries that they work in and the places they call home. Together We Fly aims to educate readers about the first people to live on this great southern land, featuring stories, ideas and business knowledge from Indigenous Australians from around the country. Each year, more than 360,000 people travel on Airnorth. That’s a captive audience of 60,000 passengers every issue, entertained throughout their journey thanks to the only inflight entertainment medium provided onboard the aircraft – Together We Fly magazine. This makes our magazine an incredibly targeted and responsive platform upon which to advertise your brand. Together We Fly is dedicated to telling stories of Australia – its people, industries, and the land we call home. Together We Fly aims to educate readers about the traditional custodians of our great southern land, featuring stories, ideas, and business knowledge. There is a section of Together We Fly dedicated to everything Airnorth, which features a welcome letter from the CEO, a map displaying Airnorth’s routes, news from Airnorth, a FAQ sheet, and handy information on inflight safety. The rest of the magazine includes travel and lifestyle features, a national events calendar, product pages, and striking interviews with important Australians. To further interest Airnorth’s frequent business flyers, there is also a business section, dedicated to mining and natural resources. Media Kit 2 Through Together We Fly magazine, passengers learn about the people and the places that make regional and outback Australia what it is today. Everyone today is swamped with information from so many platforms and from so many different angles, that brands need to be able to offer a tight, trustworthy media mix that reaches, resonates and remains with people living in the metro, rural, regional and remote regions of Australia. That’s a lot of ground to cover, and a lot of minds to engage, but Publishing ByChelle knows how to do it well. Many media agency buyers invest in Five-Metro Media with the expectation that they have also squared away potential regional customers. However, according to EMMA data (Enhanced Media Metrics Australia: emma.com.au), a high proportion of regional consumers are either non- or light-consumers of mainstream media. At Publishing ByChelle, everyone on our team is passionate about rural, regional and remote Australia, and we also understand that Airnorth also carries city folk who engage in regular business across Australia. Through Airnorth’s magazine, our team will continually create an environment in which targeted information, ideas, travel stories, and business innovations are shared among our passengers. Airline magazine advertising is a proven method of targeting the frequent flyer, leisure and business traveller market (decision makers and opinion leaders with high income).

Frequent flyers’ level of engagement with inflight magazines is very high. Research shows that 80% of frequent flyers have read or looked through Airnorth’s inflight magazine in the past month and 91% have read or looked through it in the past six months. Together We Fly places traditional advertising in front of elusive consumers at a time when they have no other media distractions. They are a captive audience like no other, that we know how to engage. Media Kit 3 Introducing Airnorth Airnorth is the major aviation operator in Northern Australia.
