easyJet holidays fools the nation with rebrand to easyJet Holibobs!
The leading package holiday company formerly known as easyJet Holidays, has today announced a radical rebrand to easyJet Holibobs.
In a strategic move aimed at connecting with Holibobs lovers from across the UK, the new brand positioning follows extensive market research which revealed that ‘Holibobs’ has been searched over 35 million times on TikTok.
From 8am on April 1st customers will no longer be able to book a ‘holiday’ – they will have to choose from an extensive choice of holibobs instead.
Marketing experts at the company believe that Holibob, with its jaunty double "b" and carefree o's, is not just a word; it's a clarion call to all those suffocating under the tyranny of old-school vacation lingo.
easyJet Holibobs Chief Holibob officer, said: “We are excited to announce our new Holibobs brand platform which will help form a deep connection with holibob customers whilst targeting wider holibob adopters. Holibobs are for everyone to enjoy and easyJet Holibobs is here to help everyone achieve the holibob of their dreams. Whether you’re looking for a Summer holibob with your huns, a Chrimbo holibob with the hubland and famalam or a spring holibob with BAE - we have just the holibob to make your friends jelly. Amazeballs!’
The rebrand is now live on the company website, as well as its social media channels including Instagram, Facebook, X, TikTok, YouTube and Threads.
