Travelport Throws Blank Page on Browser, Calls it Marketing

The Flea and JND Technologies in Mumbai join forces to create an allegedly creative marketing campaign for client Travelport Holidays.

The campaign is a hark back to Evian Detox, which promoted purity by overwhelming websites on which its clean glacial banners sat, except it’s much lazier.

The Quietest Place on the Web brings you to a white screen with the following sentences: “Welcome to the quietest place on the Web. The next time the noise of life gets to you, do drop by for a little bit of peace and quiet.” The wandering eye then meanders down to the bottom of the page for lack of anything else to do, where it finds a link to Travelport India, another website that’s not terribly stunning.

Unless Travelport has a huge demo of people seeking to visit the Tibetan monks or the inside of a padded room, we’re just not seeing how this initiative will help them draw vacation clients.
