Not a lot, apparently, as the new campaign from Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) claims that everything from Swedish meatballs to the world-famous Danish is a copy. And that travellers, the modern Vikings, are to blame.
From the craft standpoint the ad is spot on, but in its message it was bound to stir up some controversies – so much so that the company shortly pulled back the campaign, noting that they don’t want to allow that the campaign be hijacked and used by certain people for their own agendas on social media.
The campaign was soon returned, with a shortened version but same message. The company stated:
“SAS is a Scandinavian airline that brings travelers to, from and within Scandinavia, and we stand behind the message in the film that travel enriches us. We are proud of our Scandinavian heritage. It is part of SAS’ DNA and the foundation for our existence. We are now continuing the planned campaign by publishing a shorter and clearer version.”
The new work is created by leading Danish agency, &Co and directed by Gustav Johansson with production company, New Land.
“Scandinavia is having a moment. And us Scandis love it when the rest of the world talks about us. In a way, our little region is being put on a pedestal. So, we wanted to dive into how Scandinavia became to be Scandinavian in the first place – and how we can keep it evolving.” says Copywriter, Mathias Trads of & Co.
