PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Derrie-Air has been exposed. Readers of The Philadelphia Inquirer and Philadelphia Daily News opened their papers Friday to see ads for a new airline called Derrie-Air, which purportedly charges passengers by the pound.
But the new carrier will never get off the ground. It's a one-day advertising campaign about a fake airline by Philadelphia Media Holdings, the papers' owner, and Quaker City Mercantile (formerly known as Gyro Worldwide) ad agency.
In light blue banners throughout the papers - as well as on their Web site, Philly.com - Derrie-Air cheerily trumpets its policy: The more you weigh, the more you pay. The ads direct readers to the Web site http://www.flyderrie-air.com .
The Business at Hand - Nice tail! Derrie-Air - Pack less. Weigh less. Pay less.
Did you see it - Nice tail! Derrie-Air - Pack less. Weigh less. Pay less.
A SHAM!! There was a full page ad in the Philadelphia Inquirer, plus several smaller quarter page ads throughout the first section of a very large and expensive newspaper! It made an impact, the ad caught your eye!
It's a sham!! Check it out, and at the bottom you'll see their disclaimer and in my next blog there will be an explanation, a news article explaining the sham!! It's all about the environment, carbon footprints, etc. It's pretty funny!!
