RyanAir Radio Campaign Ideas




Advertising Agency:  Bond Mix
Media Type: Radio

Client: RyanAir LTD
Completion Date: /03/13
Media Type: Radio

Project Summary:
RyanAir is one of the United Kingdom’s largest low cost airlines that specialises in short haul flights. RyanAir has seen in recent years its business rapidly grow. It has capatalised on the economic decline as it offers affordable travel even in the current economic climate. RyanAir is looking to reposition itself within the low cost travel market, from a low cost airline to a low cost high quality brand that is to be recognized as the clear market leader. RyanAir is looking to incorporate a Radio Campaign as part of its overall advertising campaign that will accompany the repositioning of the brand. The Agency must produce at least 2 different story board ideas for the TV/Cinema campaign. The aim of the campaign is to incorporate and inform existing and potentials clientele of the brand reposition.  

Target Audience:

RyanAir’s current target market presides within the ABC1 demographic. This demographic has more of a disposable income and can afford to travel short haul. Because RyanAir concentrates most of its business activities within Europe a lot of customers are professionals travelling for the purpose of business. Due to RyanAir’s low cost strategy it does appeal to the lower end of the demographic, low income households etc., as well as people traveling on a budget for example back packers. RyanAir mostly appeal to the age Range of 18-44. This is a very broad selection of people which is great in terms of expansion and ability to create the largest Reach. The Customers are very much price orientated. The customers are generally from the ABC1 demographics. The consumers can further be identified through their individual habits from this demographic; 19% business, 41% Leisure and 38% personal usage.

Single-Minded Message



Low Cost High Quality


This singled minded message it to be used as a continual theme that the adverts portray. Ryan Air is famous for providing cheap flights to hundreds of destinations. As this is a USP of RyanAir we do not want to change this, however when people think 'cheap' they think low quality, the adverts are to reiterate the fact that RyanAir provides low cost flights but at the same if not better quality than that of other airlines. 

Communication Strategy:


The Radio adverts will be a way for the Brand to communicate its repositioning and shake off the bad stigma attached to providing a low cost service. The Storyboards ideas must portray a story that communicates with the new and existing customers of Ryan Airs intentions to offer low cost travel, the same as before but at a higher quality.

Competitive Positioning:

RyanAir operates in a very tight market, with lots of different competitors offering low cost air travel. Although the market they operate in is very condense they are continuing to expand as a company. Other competitors are offering similar prices but do not target individuals within the market. Other competitors are just focusing on price rather than a pleasant travel experience. RyanAir have come under criticism for their role in cutting costs and need to combat the bad press they receive. All though they should not take away from their low cost strategy they need to focus on advertising their good parts.
