Uppercut Branding

TruJet

TruJet, a regional airline, wanted to make air travel accessible to the growing Indian middle class — a segment that often chose trains or buses over planes. The brand needed to reimagine its communication to connect emotionally with first-time flyers while highlighting its affordability and reach.

Challenge

Air travel was still seen as aspirational.

Our task was to position TruJet as the bridge between dreams and destinations — without losing the credibility of a modern airline. The communication had to be simple, relatable, and instantly understandable across languages and regions.

Strategy

We built the brand narrative around “Truly” — a single, ownable word that stood for authenticity, reliability, and accessibility.

This became the base for a modular campaign system using hashtags like:

  • #TrulyAffordable – Flights that fit in your wallet.

  • #TrulyAvailable – Airfares at train rates.

  • #TruDestinations – Routes that matter most.

  • #TruUpdates – Real-time communication.

  • #TruOffers – Everyday value made visible.

Each theme simplified a complex travel story into a relatable human truth — flight made easy, approachable, and friendly.

Creative Approach

The visual system reflected clarity and confidence.

  • Minimal, bold compositions for high visibility.

  • Airport & outdoor OOH that connected at the right travel touchpoints.

  • Digital platforms redesigned for ease — from flight search to route maps.

  • A color system built from TruJet’s identity — clean blues and greens, signaling trust and accessibility.

The creative language stayed consistent across billboards, digital media, and UI — making the #Truly campaign both scalable and recognizable.

Impact

  • 30% increase in brand recall within the target segment.

  • Significant surge in website engagement post-launch.

  • Expansion of new flyers — especially tier-2 city routes.

  • A brand that became synonymous with affordable regional air travel.
