2. 2 Why advertise in Airports Vip Lounges? Airports are no longer just places where passengers are in transit. On the contrary, they are now meeting points for cultures, enjoyment, opportunities… VIP Lounges generate business possibilities and link the local economy to foreign markets. They have now become an advertising medium with countless advantages, since they are where consumers and brands come together. VIP Lounges have a broad technological spectrum of media for communicating brand strengths through innovative supports that adapt, position and renew the medium. A unique environment catering to a VIP audience. VIP Lounge customers are a well-defined market segment, with higher than average purchasing power, a high intellectual quotient, and leading opinions, thus harbouring enormous potential as publicity targets. This audience, highly sought-after by many brands, moves around, observes, stops and takes in its surroundings with all its senses.
