Ferry market leader P&O Ferries is set to deliver its first campaign since announcing the launch of a new strategic brand platform ‘To The Sea’ for post-pandemic travel earlier this year. The ferry operator announced its new strategic brand platform, which it developed and created in collaboration with Publicis•Poke, with a teaser film ‘A Calling’ in February earlier this year. Now with travel restrictions easing, P&O is ready to launch the brand platform with a campaign whose centrepiece is 30” TV spot airing across the UK in a media strategy targeting new and existing customers, driven by Starcom. Starcom also handled media planning and buying. The TV ad shot under lockdown captures the consumer mood for more safety, convenience and flexibility, without compromising on the travel experience. Drawing on notions of escapism and the celebration of the sea as a liberating force, the TV creative shot by Si&Ad symbolises a new way of looking at a centuries-old means of transport, resonating with those who may not have initially considered ferry travel as an option when planning a holiday. The campaign has been developed by Publicis Groupe UK’s ‘Power of One’ proposition, with media agency Starcom handling the media strategy and Publicis•Poke devising the new brand strategy and platform, as well as the creative and the brand’s new visual identity. Publicis Groupe UK’s agencies Starcom and Publicis•Poke have worked with P&O Ferries since 2014 and 2018 respectively, most recently collaborating on the ‘A Calling’ teaser film. Running concurrently with the TV ad is a digital content series, ‘Ferry Tales’, which strategically complements ‘To The Sea’ by generating a more in-depth consideration of travelling with P&O. The Minifilms showcase the unexpected adventures that P&O Ferries make possible, like cycling from Edinburgh to Munich and taking friends on surf tour of Northern Ireland and the West coast of Scotland.
