The Week announces American Airlines campaign

The Week has launched a bespoke content partnership for American Airlines’ Going for Great campaign.

The six-month fully-integrated campaign highlights the airline’s business class routes from London to New York (JFK) and Los Angeles.

It features tailor-made creative across print, online and digital editions designed by the award-winning advertising team at Dennis Publishing and starts on Friday July 10.

Print ads will run in the UK edition of The Week, and the campaign will also feature in The Week app and in high impact display ads on TheWeek.co.uk.

Up to 160,000 copies of US edition of The Week will be delivered to UK subscribers, along with 12,000 copies that will be distributed at Canary Wharf.

The edition will include an American Airlines branded cover wrap and specially tailored content for UK readers.

The Week website will also host a dedicated American Airlines content hub.

“It combines print, digital, events and a media first – it’s been a delight to work with American Airlines on such a ground-breaking partnership.”
