Maximize Holiday Reach with the Leader in Airport Advertising
Engage holiday travelers and boost brand visibility with our exclusive airport media programs in 55 commercial airports, reaching over half of all U.S. travelers each week.
During the 2025 holiday season, airlines are expecting to fly an average of 2.8 million passengers per day, positioning the upcoming season to be one of the busiest travel periods in recent history. With millions of Americans taking to the skies to visit loved ones or embark on winter getaways, airports become premium locations for brands to connect with a receptive audience including high income travelers, business decision-makers, and families. Clear Channel Outdoor (CCO) offers innovative airport advertising solutions that ensure your brand stands out during this peak travel time.
Engage a captive audience
Airports offer a unique environment where travelers are more attentive and open to messaging. With extended dwell times, especially during the holiday rush, your brand has the opportunity to make a lasting impression. CCO's airport advertising solutions include:
- Digital Displays: High-definition screens located throughout terminals provide a big creative canvas, providing brands with a richer storytelling environment. In addition, brands can achieve real-time relevance with dynamic content reacting to current events, trends, information on local sports teams, and more.
- Experiential Activations: Airports offer unique spaces in high dwell time environments, for brands to host immersive interactive experiences that engage travelers and create memorable brand connections ripe for sharing across social media platforms.
- Sponsorship Opportunities: Align your brand with specific airport zones or services for targeted exposure.
Reach high-value travelers
Air travel during the holidays includes a mix of business professionals, affluent consumers, and families, all of whom are in a mindset to spend. According to a Nielsen study commissioned by CCO, 83 percent of frequent flyers notice airport advertising, and 75 percent take action after seeing an ad, like visiting a website or making a purchase. CCO also operates at 115 private jet terminals, providing a unique opportunity for brands to target wealthy and influential travelers.
