Unboxing Asean: How MOVE’s social media Blind Box Challenge is revealing the region's hidden gems
MOVE rolled out this campaign to shine a spotlight on Asean's hidden gems through authentic creator-led journeys, inspiring more travellers to venture off the beaten path.
Before setting off on their journeys, creators drew a destination from a sealed blind box, with no clues and opportunity to swap. Whatever destination they picked became their next adventure.
Across the two-month campaign, participating creators explored destinations that showcase a different side of Asean. @jaslinpuasa and @afiqazhar_ travelled to Bohol, Philippines, @kasihirisleona ventured to Danau Toba, Indonesia, @foreppp and @zakuanzainal discovered Krabi, Thailand, while @sandrahanayu and @sheqins explored Sandakan, Malaysia.
“Some of the best travel experiences are the ones you never see coming,” said Ravi Shankar Mallavarapu, Chief Marketing Officer, AirAsia MOVE.
“This Blind Box Challenge is about embracing the unexpected and showing that incredible adventures can be found in places travellers may never have considered. Through our creators’ journeys, we hope to inspire more people to explore Asean with an open mind and discover destinations that surprise and delight.”
The Blind Box Challenge reflects MOVE's continuous commitment to inspiring more meaningful travel across Asean by connecting travellers with authentic destinations and experiences beyond the usual tourist trail. As a one-stop travel platform, MOVE makes it easy to discover, plan, and book flights, hotels, and activities, all in one app.
