Building on last years success, Alaska Airlines and Mekanism brought back the Care Coalition, this time to field test the airline. Led by Tan France, the group went both to the airport and up into the air, putting the phrase “most caring airline” to a test.

We built a 360 campaign covering TV, OOH, DOOH, radio, and social.

Identifying itself as “The Most Caring Airline”, we built a campaign for Alaska Airlines around the Care Coalition; A secret counsel comprised of the most caring individuals in the universe. There’s Tan France, Nick Cho (@YourKoreanDad), Funshine Bear (Care Bear), Snuggie, Mother Nature, Grandma, and Dog. And together they are voting on if Alaska Airlines should become the 8th member of the group.

We built a 360 campaign blanketing the SF Bay Area in Care – TV, Digital, Social, Print, Radio, and OOH. The campaign premiered during the 2022 Olympics and Super Bowl.
