Brief

With AirAsia’s millennial target audience exposed to popular destinations regularly, our challenge was to sell their lesser-known routes, which included cities few have ever heard of.

Solution

So we created our films entirely on the road less travelled. The strategy was to romanticize these routes and turn unfamiliar destinations into brag points. But it was a familiar message to many. Preaching it wasn’t enough. We had to practice it. Creative and production teams explored mountain trails, back alleys, insignificant streets, random homes and quiet waterways in China and India, shooting content and writing stories.
