Airport
Marketing

Many destinations have turned their focus to attracting
the Chinese traveler. In turn, airports are now exploring
Chinese social media to complement their western
focused programs. But where to start?
Airport Marketing

Airport
Marketing

02

Airports are the first gateway for Chinese
entering a destination.
This provides unprecedented opportunities for
airports to engage these Chinese travelers via social
media. Although many airports have started to
connect with travelers via Facebook & Twitter, these
platforms are not available in China so new Chinese
social media platforms are needed.
While getting many fans and followers is a start, it is
only the beginning. The real challenge lies in
engaging them and driving results from this
engagement.
Has your airport identified how to think beyond fan
numbers and instead tie social media to specific
business objectives? Whether you are new to social
media or are an airport with an existing social base, a
strategic plan needs to be in place in order to make
social media work for your airport.

percentage of
overall Chinese
overseas travel

In April, 2013 President Xi Jinping noted that in the next five years China will probably have over 400 million
tourists traveling abroad.
Everyone is scrambling for a share of the spoils. In October, the British government announced plans to
simplify UK visa procedures for nationals from China, with the goal of trebling Chinese tourists to Britain by
2015. India has launched Chinese-language Life of Pi tours after the film was a box-office hit in China, while
Greece is promoting "idyllic island honeymoons" to the Chinese market. Even the Mugabe regime in Zimbabwe
Connected Travelers

The Connected Chinese
Traveler
The „connected Chinese traveler‟
phenomenon is rising with 420
million Chinese owning a
smartphone.
•

Over 600 million internet users in
China. Over 300 million people
downloaded WeChat. Over 450
million people use Weibo.

•

Chinese are interested in sharing
their experiences (good & bad)
with their friends and follows

•

Leveraging this social media
dynamic will help your airport
increase revenue and spend per
PAX

•

A Mobile platform should be main
focus for developing a
communications and branding
strategy with Chinese travelers.

05

For almost all Chinese entering an international destination the airport is their first
stop on their journey. A welcoming social media message or information on the
ways to get around or even a short video in Chinese will go a long way in
establishing a positive impression for the airport and destination being visited.

Earned Media

Earned Media = Trust
Eighty-six percent of consumers in China say they trust word-of-mouth recommendations from
friends and family, a form of earned media , above all other sources of advertising. In terms of
advertising messages, health-themed (46%), high-energy/action (43%) and humorous (41%)
resonated most with Chinese consumers. In particular, health-related ads created a most
memorable brand identity for more women (54%) than men (41%). *

信任
The Nielsen Global Trust in Advertising Survey was conducted between August 31 and September 16, 2011 and polled more than 28,000
online consumers in 56 countries throughout Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and North America.
Growth

Earned Media: Growth
Like a tree, growing your earned media (Social) takes
time and hard work. Digital Jungle understands the subtle
nuances that make particular content more attractive and
engaging for a Chinese audience.

Seeding

Harvesting

Establishing
the first
discussion
on a
particular
topic.

Responding or
commenting
on a thread or
post for a topic
of interest.

Removing „troll
comments‟ or
neutralizing them
with a response.

Using a form of
inducement or incentive
to motivate engagement.
Often in the form of a
competition, give-away or
discount.

Leveraging your community for
some benefit. Often just soliciting
feedback on a topic or maybe a
request for some form of favor,
i.e., „like‟ my post or „follow me‟.

Content Focus

10

Content Focus
For both a Chinese and Western focused social media program the content areas will generally be within four
broad categories. For each of these categories the social marketer will need to look for opportunities to
establish a relationship through content and relevant, interesting activities.

Social Activities

Social Marketing Activities:
6 Key Activities

Each content and social marketing program must include activities that will be appropriate for
your target audience and align to your broader social media marketing goals. Below are 6
social media activates that maybe considered for an airport looking to engage Chinese
travelers.

Advocacy

Social care

Story telling

Advocacy, by those who
have experienced a
product or service,
has always been the
biggest driving force
behind gaining new
customers.

Today‟s connected
travelers are keen to get
information on the go
and are not shy to vent
their frustration in an
instant.

Socially caring airports
build memorable, longlasting bonds with the
community using
storytelling.

Crowdsourcing

VIP Program

Virtual shopping

Online platforms offer
unprecedented
opportunities for inviting
customer participation
and tapping into great
ideas for product
innovation.

Airports are keen to build
bonds with international
communities too and
make them feel at home.

An average traveler
spends at least an hour
waiting to board his/her
flight. How can airports
and retailers penetrate
into gate seating areas
and sell their products?

SUCCESS
STORY
Western Social Media

Western Focused Social Media Initiatives

A number of western focused social media initiatives are used by airports to build their brands and drive
customer engagement and loyalty.
For instance:
Melbourne International Airport uses Twitter to help travelers plan their journey by providing flight schedule
information and special offers.
London Gatwick Airport has a Twitter Flight Information Display Screen, in public view at the airport that
allows travellers to Tweet any issues that need attention. The airport‟s responses are also shown.
Birmingham Airport established a Facebook advertising program that was used in conjunction with social
activity to reach out to travelers.
Boston Logan Airport advertises flights, cruise holidays and contests on their Facebook site.
Passengers are typically the main focus for social media initiatives at airports. However, social media is
used by airports to connect, communicate and interact with all types of customer including airlines, the travel
trade, and stakeholders in general.
Example Weibo
Accounts

Targeting Chinese Through Weibo

Changi Airport
weibo.com/changi2013

Charles de Gaulle Airport
(Paris)
weibo.com/parislifestyle

Auckland Airport
weibo.com/u/2616468295

Frankfurt Airport
weibo.com/frankfurtairport

Melbourne International
Airport
weibo.com/melair

Hong Kong Airport
Authority
weibo.com/hkairport

As more airports understand the need to leverage Chinese social media, the list of Sina Weibo accounts is only set to
grow. However, many have not created a verified official accounts (“V”) . Without being verified, Chinese netizens have a
lower engagement rate because they are concerned about the account being „real‟. Currently, many Sina Weibo airport
accounts are non verified and therefore will underperform in China.

14
Case Study

Case Study: Christchurch Airport
Christchurch Airport is one of the few International airports to embrace a Chinese social media
strategy to specifically target inbound Chinese travelers using Chinese social media.

Chinese Social Media
Sina Weibo & WeChat
In preparation for the arrival of a new Chinese carrier in
early 2014, Christchurch Airport has established a verified
Sina Weibo Account.
Their Chinese social media strategy involves the active
engagement of Chinese travelers to this region and to
provide them with information relating to Christchurch and
airport activities.

Airport Marketing for the Chinese Connected Traveler

  • 1. Airport Marketing Many destinations have turned their focus to attracting the Chinese traveler. In turn, airports are now exploring Chinese social media to complement their western focused programs. But where to start?
  • 2. Airport Marketing Airport Marketing 02 Airports are the first gateway for Chinese entering a destination. This provides unprecedented opportunities for airports to engage these Chinese travelers via social media. Although many airports have started to connect with travelers via Facebook & Twitter, these platforms are not available in China so new Chinese social media platforms are needed. While getting many fans and followers is a start, it is only the beginning. The real challenge lies in engaging them and driving results from this engagement. Has your airport identified how to think beyond fan numbers and instead tie social media to specific business objectives? Whether you are new to social media or are an airport with an existing social base, a strategic plan needs to be in place in order to make social media work for your airport. DIGITAL JUNGLE UNDERSTANDS CHINA
  • 3. 1 3 Chinese travelers are the most numerous overseas arrivals at many global airports Chinese travelers are the world‟s biggest traveling spenders 4 2 Fast Facts CHINESE OUTBOUND China‟s broad Tourism Law went into effect on October 1, 2013 Outbound trips from China continued to increase, boasting more than 18 % YoY Growth 5 Individual tourism represents a larger percentage of overall Chinese overseas travel In April, 2013 President Xi Jinping noted that in the next five years China will probably have over 400 million tourists traveling abroad. Everyone is scrambling for a share of the spoils. In October, the British government announced plans to simplify UK visa procedures for nationals from China, with the goal of trebling Chinese tourists to Britain by 2015. India has launched Chinese-language Life of Pi tours after the film was a box-office hit in China, while Greece is promoting "idyllic island honeymoons" to the Chinese market. Even the Mugabe regime in Zimbabwe
  • 4. Connected Travelers 04 The Connected Chinese Traveler The „connected Chinese traveler‟ phenomenon is rising with 420 million Chinese owning a smartphone. • Over 600 million internet users in China. Over 300 million people downloaded WeChat. Over 450 million people use Weibo. • Chinese are interested in sharing their experiences (good & bad) with their friends and follows • Leveraging this social media dynamic will help your airport increase revenue and spend per PAX • A Mobile platform should be main focus for developing a communications and branding strategy with Chinese travelers. INDIVIDUAL & GROUP TRAVEL – BOTH DEMOGRAPHICS ARE BOTH HIGHLY CONNECTED TRAVLERS
  • 5. First Impressions First Impressions MATTER 05 For almost all Chinese entering an international destination the airport is their first stop on their journey. A welcoming social media message or information on the ways to get around or even a short video in Chinese will go a long way in establishing a positive impression for the airport and destination being visited.
  • 7. Promotion Options SALES PAID OWNE D EARNE D SEARCH ENGINE , AFFILIATE SALES TV, PRINT, RADIO, SAMPLING, BANNERING, OUTDOOR etc. TERMINAL, MOBILE APP, WEBSITE, NEWSLETTER, LINKEDIN PAGE, WEIBO ACCOUNT BUZZ ON WECHAT (ENGAGEMENT), WEIBO, YOUKU, BLOGS etc. PUBLIC PUBLIC CONSUMERS FANS
  • 8. Earned Media 08 Earned Media = Trust Eighty-six percent of consumers in China say they trust word-of-mouth recommendations from friends and family, a form of earned media , above all other sources of advertising. In terms of advertising messages, health-themed (46%), high-energy/action (43%) and humorous (41%) resonated most with Chinese consumers. In particular, health-related ads created a most memorable brand identity for more women (54%) than men (41%). * 信任 The Nielsen Global Trust in Advertising Survey was conducted between August 31 and September 16, 2011 and polled more than 28,000 online consumers in 56 countries throughout Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and North America.
  • 9. Growth Earned Media: Growth Like a tree, growing your earned media (Social) takes time and hard work. Digital Jungle understands the subtle nuances that make particular content more attractive and engaging for a Chinese audience. Seeding Feeding Weeding Nurturing Harvesting Establishing the first discussion on a particular topic. Responding or commenting on a thread or post for a topic of interest. Removing „troll comments‟ or neutralizing them with a response. Using a form of inducement or incentive to motivate engagement. Often in the form of a competition, give-away or discount. Leveraging your community for some benefit. Often just soliciting feedback on a topic or maybe a request for some form of favor, i.e., „like‟ my post or „follow me‟. 09
  • 10. Content Focus 10 Content Focus For both a Chinese and Western focused social media program the content areas will generally be within four broad categories. For each of these categories the social marketer will need to look for opportunities to establish a relationship through content and relevant, interesting activities. Increase awareness Marketing partnerships • • • Get Airport top-of-mind, on a nationwide and global level Increase the awareness of our destination portfolio • Brand development • • Claim positioning themes through off and online campaigns Prove these themes through operation and communication Cooperation with aviation and non-aviation partners Both outside and in the terminal Interactions • • • Focus on connected traveler through online, e-mail and social Optimize conversion possibilities (search engine marketing a.o.) Accelerate on mobile
  • 11. Social Activities Social Marketing Activities: 6 Key Activities Each content and social marketing program must include activities that will be appropriate for your target audience and align to your broader social media marketing goals. Below are 6 social media activates that maybe considered for an airport looking to engage Chinese travelers. Advocacy Social care Story telling Advocacy, by those who have experienced a product or service, has always been the biggest driving force behind gaining new customers. Today‟s connected travelers are keen to get information on the go and are not shy to vent their frustration in an instant. Socially caring airports build memorable, longlasting bonds with the community using storytelling. Crowdsourcing VIP Program Virtual shopping Online platforms offer unprecedented opportunities for inviting customer participation and tapping into great ideas for product innovation. Airports are keen to build bonds with international communities too and make them feel at home. An average traveler spends at least an hour waiting to board his/her flight. How can airports and retailers penetrate into gate seating areas and sell their products? 11
  • 13. Western Social Media 13 Western Focused Social Media Initiatives A number of western focused social media initiatives are used by airports to build their brands and drive customer engagement and loyalty. For instance: Melbourne International Airport uses Twitter to help travelers plan their journey by providing flight schedule information and special offers. London Gatwick Airport has a Twitter Flight Information Display Screen, in public view at the airport that allows travellers to Tweet any issues that need attention. The airport‟s responses are also shown. Birmingham Airport established a Facebook advertising program that was used in conjunction with social activity to reach out to travelers. Boston Logan Airport advertises flights, cruise holidays and contests on their Facebook site. Passengers are typically the main focus for social media initiatives at airports. However, social media is used by airports to connect, communicate and interact with all types of customer including airlines, the travel trade, and stakeholders in general.
  • 14. Example Weibo Accounts Targeting Chinese Through Weibo Changi Airport weibo.com/changi2013 Charles de Gaulle Airport (Paris) weibo.com/parislifestyle Auckland Airport weibo.com/u/2616468295 Frankfurt Airport weibo.com/frankfurtairport Melbourne International Airport weibo.com/melair Hong Kong Airport Authority weibo.com/hkairport As more airports understand the need to leverage Chinese social media, the list of Sina Weibo accounts is only set to grow. However, many have not created a verified official accounts (“V”) . Without being verified, Chinese netizens have a lower engagement rate because they are concerned about the account being „real‟. Currently, many Sina Weibo airport accounts are non verified and therefore will underperform in China. 14
  • 15. Case Study Case Study: Christchurch Airport Christchurch Airport is one of the few International airports to embrace a Chinese social media strategy to specifically target inbound Chinese travelers using Chinese social media. Chinese Social Media Sina Weibo & WeChat In preparation for the arrival of a new Chinese carrier in early 2014, Christchurch Airport has established a verified Sina Weibo Account. Their Chinese social media strategy involves the active engagement of Chinese travelers to this region and to provide them with information relating to Christchurch and airport activities. 15
