90 years gives Aeroméxico the credentials to position themselves as the country’s flagship airline with the most experience. However, they must be very careful not to send a message that makes the brand appear old and conservative. They needed to align with younger generations, especially Millennials and Gen-Z, who feel more affinity for brands with a “young” and human tone. The challenge lies in how to celebrate 90 years while also conveying youth, innovation, high-end, and cutting-edge at the same time.
Campaign objective
The 90th anniversary of Aeroméxico, which took place in September 2024, was a unique opportunity to continue building on the new brand purpose and visual language implemented throughout past years. It also presented as the perfect time to showcase the changes in their customers’ travel experience, such as the redesign of their uniforms and the transformation of their Premier Lounges, a project led by a world-class Mexican architect.
The solution
X was the perfect place to announce the 90th Aeroméxico Anniversary. Aeroméxico took advantage of using big impact formats, like Trend Takeover+, accompanied with branded features, like hashfetti and hashmojis to help increase the engagement with our audience.
The brand also made use of Scheduled notifications for the 90th Aeroméxico Anniversary, which built the X audience interest for the celebration. Additionally, they made use of a reach campaign with images and videos that catapulted the campaign awareness and engagement.

“To celebrate Aeroméxico’s 90th anniversary, we launched a brand awareness campaign aimed at strengthening our presence and connection with the audience. Integrating X into our digital strategy exceeded all expectations, achieving 264% more impressions than originally estimated within the available budget. Thanks to an effective balance between reach and frequency, X became the second-highest impact medium in our Brand Lift, despite not being one of the top investments in terms of budget allocation. Additionally, we significantly improved campaign efficiency, achieving a CPM 28.3% lower than the overall average across all media used and closing with a CPM 72.5% lower than originally estimated in the Media Plan. These results highlight X as a key channel for driving branding and brand awareness campaigns with high impact and efficiency.”
