eTalk’s Ben Mulroney and Lainey Lui team up with Air Transat

Montreal, April 19, 2016 – Air Transat is proud to present two new TV ads, produced by DentsuBos in partnership with Bell Media. The two 15-second ads aim to promote Air Transat’s European destinations to Canadians looking to get away this summer.

These ads build on Air Transat’s innovative concept of the pivoting airplane seat, in which travellers turn to face the camera to recount their vacations. But this time, it’s eTalk hosts Ben Mulroney and Lainey Lui who spin in their Air Transat seats and share memories from their trips to London and Paris, respectively.

“By using recognizable Canadian celebrities to share memories from their overseas travels, the ads accentuate the message from our Europe for Everyone campaign,” says Geneviève LeBrun, Vice-President of Marketing at Transat Tours Canada. “It’s also a wonderful opportunity to promote our European program, which includes direct flights to 28 destinations.”

As part of this initiative, Transat and eTalk are offering all Canadians a chance to win a trip to Europe and make memories of their own, thanks to Air Transat. Check out the contest at:  http://www.etalk.ca/europeforeveryonecontest.

The Air Transat ads will run in Ontario and British Columbia from April 18 to 30.
