Campaign Objectives
The growth rate in Western Europe continue to
be more stable and citizens of the West richer.
Wizz Air is a highly valued company in CEE where it holds very strong market share by attracting
customers with its reasonable prices and standing up for its values continually. However, Western
Europe is a more stable market. Through our campaign we want to both strengthen company’s
leadership position in CEE countries and introduce it to the millennials in Western Europe who tend to
be adventurous and seeking to explore Europe during their years in university.
Our 5 main objectives are:
Create a new revenue stream
Encourage the growth in young millennials segment
Create long-term brand loyalty by transforming the young millinnials into sky warriors (BCG)
Promote short-term and adventurous travelling in line with WizzAir values
Increase brand awareness in Western Europe by attracting generations Y and Z

Strategic Tools
EuroPass is a service similar to WizzAir’s discount club, but
it is only available to customers under the age of 24.
Creating the future Sky Warriors.
EuroPass
The OrientPass would be sold at slightly higher prices than the
EuroPass as the destinations are going to be more exotic. It is going
to give millennials the opportunity to who have used the EuroPass
to explore Europe to get to know more new destinations e.g. Tel
Aviv, Baku, Dubai.
Extention of the Europass
OrientPass
Once-in-a-lifetime experience, better than MTV’s festival
or Tomorrowland. It is going to be exclusive to the
people who have purchased an EuroPass. Limitd
number of tickets.
The Ibiza event everyone is going to talk about
Wibizza
Launching during peak travel season to be able to exploit most out
of Wizz Air’s integrated marketing channels and customer base.
Putting the spotlight on the travellers
Marketing Campaign
EuroPass travellers would have the opportunity to win
an unforgettable trip to Ibiza for Wizz Air’s birthday by
sharing photos from their travel with their EuroPass on
social media (Facebook and Instagram). Those who
fulfilled the competition conditions will have the chance

The Challenge
5. WIZZ Youth Challenge
EuroPass: The smart way to travel
“Trains are old-fashioned, slow and quality depends on the
country. That is why we are offering the smart way for young
people to travel and explore Europe at affordable prices.”
A travel pass that facilitates travelling across Europe at exclusive prices for
travellers below the age of 25.
Unlimited choice of travel destinations between EU countries, excluding national
flights to prevent exploitation and channel conflict.
In 2016, 300,000 young people travelled Europe by purchasing Interrail Pass,
compared to 240,000 in 2009 - an average of almost 4% increase per year.
Short-term travel passes, providing exclusive discount on weekday flights
Increase in last-minute travel demand and seat utilisation.
This gradual increase indicates interest from young Europeans. However, safety
issues and the inconvenience of railway transportation in EE slow the tend.
