W+K’s Latest Delta Spot Urges You to Get Up Off Your Lazy Ass Already

You know who’s lazy? The “Dreamers,” according to White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly.

Also, the people who aren’t making the most of the many opportunities earned by traveling with Delta!

The latest spot in the brand’s “Keep Climbing” campaign from Wieden + Kennedy New York urges viewers to consider the fact that they’ll never get anything if they wait around for it to just land in their laps.
As in previous ads, Oscar winner Viola Davis delivers a voiceover so compelling that we don’t even really care what’s she’s paid to promote. Spontaneous trips to Thailand? Sure!

“Runways” argues that there opportunities for adventure everywhere as long as you choose to use them. Call it an improvisational approach to travel.

This may well be true if you’re in your ’20s or your ’60s. But if you’re 38 with a newborn? That’s a totally different story.
