Thursday, November 3rd, 2011It’s been about a month now since British Airways dropped this spot, but it has such an epic quality that I think I can still post it. The spot is actually running on broadcast television, at least in New York, leading to the strange experience of seeing two spots for two different major airlines (BA and Delta) in the same hour of television. It’s been many, many years since that was a common occurrence; is it possible airline ad spending is coming back? And speaking of old-school advertising, how about a campaign once again focusing on pilots?

Last week, Qantas shocked the industry (and passengers) by grounding its fleet and locking out its employees. Now Qantas is flying again — but it’s flying into more crowded skies.
In the past three days, two of Qantas’s competitors have launched new low-cost brands. On Tuesday, Singapore Airlines introduced Scoot. Then, on Thursday, Australia’s Strategic Airlines unveiled its new name, Air Australia, and a new, low-cost focus. Air Australia’s new livery is pictured above. As an act of mercy, I am saving Scoot’s for after the jump.
