Kid hits the road with Expedia

A young adventurer heads off to see the world in the new Expedia campaign created by DDB.

Two ads, running at 30 and 60 seconds, made their debut on TV yesterday and the “out there, starts here” campaign will be rolled out across cinema, tablet and mobile, outdoor, and online.

The ad features a precocious young boy who wants to complete his bucket list of travelling the world. During his travels he goes to India and  France.

Louise Crompton, director of Brand Marketing, Expedia Australia and New Zealand, said the campaign aimed to “reignite the passion for travel and adventure Aussies are known for.”

Carat is responsible for media planning on the campaign.
