MYSAS IDEA
THE SUMMERPLANE
• Background:
– Every summer, SAS shifts capacity from domestic to European
leisure destinations
– With only 8 weeks in operation (8-16 round-trips), there are limited
resources available for traditional marketing and promotion of the
new routes)
– By letting the public decide the destination, we create buzz about all
the new destinations, we follow-up on the new strategy of more
focus on Leisure-destinations, and we prove that we are an airline
that listens to our customers, and we follow our social media
strategy of Listen-Engage-Involve- (Analyze)
– No other airline in the world has ever done something like this
