6 million passengers walk through Malta International Airport every year. Our goal was to help these passengers, as well as non-travelling visitors, see MIA as more than just an airport - it’s 

also a perfectly convenient place to shop and dine.

We concentrated on the human emotions surrounding the MIA shopping experience. We put ourselves in the shoes of the quintessential shopper, who gets excited by new products and is always looking to find the best quality for the best value.

In collaboration with London-based photographer Stephanie Galea, we designed and art directed two campaigns: a Landside campaign visible to anyone visiting Airport including non-travelling visitors, and an Airside campaign targeting travellers hopping onto a flight. Colour emerged as the hero in both.

We wanted to highlight Landside as the ultimate shopping and dining experience that everyone should try - from those waiting for their loved ones to arrive from overseas to anyone looking 

for a different hangout destination. This is how the tagline First stop: Taste & try came about. 

Experimenting with different colours and textures, we created fun visuals packed with style, showing people interacting with the wide range of food and products on offer at Landside. 

All MIA travellers come across the shops at Departures. But how many of them actually 

the time to stop and browse before boarding their flight? The tagline Last call: Shop & fly 

signified our shift in focus onto the products and brands themselves.

For the Airside campaign visuals, we maintained a vibrant colour scheme similar to the 

Landside campaign. We also incorporated the subtle human touch of hands reaching out 

for the must-have brands exclusively available from Airside.
