SriLankan Airlines won three awards at Golden City Gate Awards 2018 at the recently concluded ITB Berlin. The carrier was awarded the ‘First Star’ in the campaign category for its Melbourne launch campaign “Two Cities, One Spirit.” It also bagged the ‘Second Star’ in the same category for its brand campaign in China themed “The Spirit of China, the Story of Sri Lanka.” The third, another ‘Second Star’, was bestowed upon SriLankan for its video “The Largest Carrier to India” in the TV Cinema Spot category. This is the second consecutive time the airline was commended at the Golden City Gate podium.
“We at SriLankan Airlines are honored to receive three prestigious awards at this year’s Golden City Gate Awards. This is the second consecutive time that we have been commended at this podium and this proves the universal appeal of our marketing communications endeavors. These awards will certainly inspire us further to explore new avenues in creative conceptualization and creation of unique content to take Sri Lanka to the world,” Saminda Perera, General Manager Marketing, SriLankan Airlines, said.
