A BBC ADVERTISING CASE STUDY
BBC Advertising helps
Emirates take off as a
lifestyle brand
19. 25
STRATEGY
Emirates wanted to re-launch its brand and communicate its
new Hello Tomorrow positioning. Its aim was to be
perceived not just as an airline but also as a lifestyle choice,
and to ensure that more people than ever would decide to
fly Emirates.
Emirates’ target audience are frequent international
travellers who often spend time living and working
overseas. What makes them really different is their desire to
connect, embrace and immerse themselves in new cultures
and ‘cultured’ experiences. They call them ‘Globalistas’.
