American Airlines targets Hispanic Business Travelers.

American Airlines this week launched a national advertising campaign aimed at U.S. Hispanic travelers in an effort to increase American’s business and to better serve the booming Latino population.

With this new campaign, American seeks to continue to be the airline of choice, uniting Latinos and their families by meeting all of their travel needs – connecting them to business associates and loved ones in any part of the world.

“American has had a commitment to this important demographic for decades,” said Dan Garton, American’s Executive Vice President – Marketing. “As the leading U.S. airline serving Latin America, as well as a founding member of the one world Alliance, we are in an ideal position to provide a service that makes it easy for families to stay in touch and business travelers to do business.”

The campaign conceived by Zubi Advertising Services, Inc. – will target Hispanic consumers with advertising in print publications and the major Spanish-language TV networks, Univisión and Telemundo, among others. The focus of the campaign is to make Hispanics more aware of the benefits of becoming a member of the American Airlines AAdvantage program, the world’s first loyalty program and consistently recognized as the best in the industry.

“In each family, we want to be the enabling force for traveling,” said Roger Frizzell, American’s Vice President – Corporate Communications and Advertising. “We want to be the airline that provides access to all those familiar and familial places – soccer games, business events, and reunions. And we want travelers to know our AAdvantage program has the right scope and the right value for families.”
