Changing the face of travel marketing

The Challenge
Celebrity Cruises is a luxury brand that proudly markets its "all-inclusive" package credentials. It is also a brand that focuses on providing truly inclusive experiences - ensuring all travelers feel welcome regardless of size, skin colour, sexuality or ability. Our challenge was to bring this commitment to life with authenticity and impact.

Our Solution
A creative global campaign that took on travel marketing’s cliched vision of “picture perfect”, straight, white, able-bodied travelers, and replaced it with a more inclusive and representative vision of travelers today.
In partnership with our friends at Good Relations in the US and UK, we helped redefine “all-inclusive” travel, launching the world’s first open-source, diversity-focused image library, free for anyone in the travel industry to use to create more inclusive content.
Adding to a global roster of photographers who identified as being a part of under-represented communities, we engaged Jarrad Seng to capture the imagery and stories of changemakers who represent the true breadth of Australians today, regardless of sexuality, size, physical ability or race.
