Cristiano Ronaldo refuses to part with his suitcase in spot for American Tourister
Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo is starring in a spot for luggage brand American Tourister in which he causes quite a stir at an airport for refusing to separate from his suitcase.
Created by TBWA\Spain, which has been tapped by American Tourister to lead the brand's global campaign efforts this year, the spot encourages travelers to ‘Bring Back More’ from their trips. According to the agency, Ronaldo personifies this tagline since he “brings back more memories, experiences and memorabilia from every trip.”
Directed by Augusto de Fraga, the spot features Ronaldo strolling through an airport with a bright yellow bag. When an airline attendant asks him for his luggage at the check-in counter, he smiles and shakes his head before jumping onto the conveyer belt alongside his suitcase. He then proceeds to stay with his bag throughout his entire journey – even during the flight and all the way to the baggage carousel – as fans gawk and snap pictures.
On social, American Tourister is asking fans to guess what’s in Ronaldo’s bag by posting a photo of their best guess along with the hashtags #BringBackMore and #AmericanTourister. Those who submit ideas will have the chance to win a trip to Russia for two or some of American Tourister’s products.
According to TBWA\Spain, the brand will be releasing different activations with the football legend in the upcoming months.
