Mumbai: Cleartrip’s new brand ambassador and cricketing icon, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, marked his debut innings with the brand’s latest ad film. Donning 3 quirky avatars – pilot, darbaan and a traveler – MSD aka Captain Cool urges first-time users to book with Cleartrip to score big with offers and enjoy unparalleled flexibility on flights, hotels and buses under the brand’s promise – ‘ClearChoice’. This proposition for a whole new set of audience is timed perfectly right ahead of the summer travel frenzy.
The film aligns with Cleartrip’s vision of growing its market presence and unlocking a new and larger demographic. It introduces them to the brand’s unique value proposition through relatable moments that resonate with every traveler. Through the campaign, the films highlight the common pain points of travelers, especially for last-minute cancellations and modifications. MSD in his quintessential style reassures the users that with Cleartrip, booking journeys are stress-free and flexible.
The unique element of the campaign messaging is Cleartrip’s assertion that new customers are lucky if they haven’t yet booked with them. This quirky and provocative approach from an OTA, suggesting luck in not choosing their service, mirrors Cleartrip’s classic disruptive marketing.
