Delta Air Lines gives travelers a new perspective on taking off and exploring the world in a new brand campaign, ‘Runways.’

In a 60-second spot, Oscar-winner Viola Davis and her assured voice reminds viewers that good things come to those who get out there and chase the many great experiences the world has to offer. As she tells us this, we hear a jet engine revving for takeoff and each new scene acts as another runway. From a table of welcoming diners to a pier over a lake or a bridge full of sheep over a rushing river, or a row of high-rise windows above a parade route and a dirt road through a tropical island, the action speeds up and eventually takes off into the clouds on a Delta jet.

Launching March 5, the campaign celebrates customers who get out into the world to chase after new experiences and adventures, while encouraging others to do the same.
