This ad was aired in 1988, long before online booking was an everyday reality. Imagine what happens when a single airline reservations agent gets, in a single call, reservations for LBB, CVG, NYC, MLU, ABQ, SJC, PDX and BTM, one after the other. If you don’t know what these codes stand for, look them up on the airport code list on airodyssey.net or watch the commercial. The conclusion of this commercial is funny when the supervisor asks, indirectly, if it was a busy day.
This is an encore from a commercial previously featured on airodyssey.net. If you care to watch more 1980s commercials after that, just keep the video playing!
The Delta commercial starts at 04:22.
