Take me to Eagle Beach!

Priming high earning long haul travellers to consider Aruba as their Caribbean destination, so that they would commit to booking early to avoid disappointment!

Launched:
2023

Challenge

Long haul travel comes at a high cost. Fear of missing out is the biggest driver for early bookings.

Understanding that the Aruba target audience likes to adventure, but also seeks confidence in a risk and hassle-free destination was key. They need information and inspiration to help them envisage being there - before starting the journey to make a booking.

Solution

We strategically timed our large format OOH campaign to capture the audience's attention during moments of stress and daydreaming, such as their daily commute, when they were most likely craving a holiday.

By showcasing stunning images of 'Eagle Beach' (the world's no.1 beach!), we effectively reached an affluent audience, providing enough dwell time to inspire their holiday plans.

Partnering with a respected Publisher, we transitioned the campaign from creating FOMO to driving action, as the digital component encouraged users to explore more and ultimately book their dream getaway.
