Leading European airline signs bilingual agency for social media.

Award-winning creative agency Custom Media K.K. will manage all social media in Japan for Lufthansa German Airlines, which is part of the Cologne-based group that operates the biggest fleet and carries more passengers than any other airline in Europe.

Renowned for diversity and innovation, Custom Media will also support Lufthansa’s advertising and promotional campaigns in Japan and provide other services as required.

Lufthansa is a premier global brand. Custom Media is very proud to be the airline’s social media marketing partner in Japan. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to solidify and extend Lufthansa’s strong brand presence with users of its services in Japanese.
