The judges said

The judges were very impressed by this project which enabled customers to access new and exciting offers while enjoying games on their mobile phone. It ended up being played over 2 million times. A truly remarkable effort and great use of the mobile platform.

Entrant’s description

In 2010, United Airlines decided to release its range of flight upgrade options to all passengers rather than Premium flyers only.

The challenge was that people didn’t understand the flight upgrades until they’d tried them – and so the “Optathlon” campaign was born.

Passengers were directed to a suite of 5 online/mobile games where they could win the upgrades instantly. Each game represented a different upgrade.

As the campaign closed, the games had been played over 2 million times and 85,000 passengers won free upgrades, earning millions of dollars’ worth of additional revenue for United Airlines.
