Problem:
Fresh out of the lockdown, travel-anxiety was at an all-time-high. People wanted to travel but were (rightfully) worried about their safety. Even though airlines were taking all the precautions.
Insight:
It was like everyone was flying for the first time again. There was no clarity around the new procedures they'd have to follow and they were scared.
![]()
Solution:
We rebranded IndiGo as the ‘lean, clean flying machine.’ We reimagined a passenger’s entire journey and left love notes of reassurance everywhere. Be it important directions to follow at the airport, or just warm messages that would calm their nerves.
We positioned the airline as the ‘lean, clean, flying machine’ - fun to say and easy to remember.

“In our post campaign launch survey, we achieved 93% consumer awareness of the new norms; nearly 65% feel confident that the Lean Clean Flying Machine will take care of their safety, and the Lean Clean Flying Machine was a rallying rallying cry for IndiGo employees and trade partners in an industry decimated by CoVID-19.. The campaign drove the number of passengers flown by 22% in one month, doubled direct booking from 10% to 25% and grew market share from 48% (pre-covid) to over 60% (DGCA report July 2020).”

The boarding counters, boarding passes, crew’s uniform, communication at the boarding gates, the PPE suits for kids, the food packaging, the stickers in the bathroom - we re-designed every little interaction.
And we did some of the bigger interactions.
