Turkish Airlines’ 2022 Super Bowl Ad With Morgan Freeman

Matthew Klint Posted onFebruary 15, 2022February 15, 2022 11 Comments

Morgan Freeman returns after a five year hiatus to star in Turkish Airlines’ annual Super Bowl Ad. The 2022 ad once again opts to highlight the breadth of Turkish Airlines’ route map over its product onboard.

Morgan Freeman Stars In Turkish Airlines’ 2022 “Pangea” Super Bowl Ad

The ad centers on the concept of Pangea, the idea that the continents we know today were once connected but over time slowly separated by a process called continental rift.

But even as we count seven distinct continents in 2022, Turkish Airlines is metaphorically bringing them back together again by offering service to more countries than any other airlines.

It’s a simple, yet powerful concept.

Once again, Turkish Airlines does not highlight it’s wonderful premium product or world-class cooking onboard. In fact, Freeman is pictures in Turkish Airlines’ older generation business class seat found on select Airbus A330s and all Boeing 777s, not its latest product found on Airbus A350s and Boeing 787s.

Maybe that’s a realization that economy class on Turkish is nothing really special (it’s okay, but space is tight), but it is certainly promotes the idea that the new strength of Turkish Airlines is its route map.

You can compare this ad to Freeman’s 2017 ad:

CONCLUSION

I still wonder if Turkish Airlines brought back Morgan Freeman when it couldn’t get George Clooney.

But whether he was first choice or not, the ad is well-done and Freeman’s calm narration is always a powerful tool.

    Amazing a company based in a 3rd world sh#thole has gained enough market share to spend this kind of money advertising in America. And is actually attracting American customers to purchase their product. Just shows how poorly the big 3 American airlines have destroyed the loyalty American customers want to give them. Certainly disappointing but they did this to themselves, no different than the American automakers.

      Again, I have to say that you really should visit these places you call s-holes. Turkey is a lovely nation and Istanbul is one of the greatest cities on earth.

        Agreed. I spent time driving thru central Turkey and the Aegean coast last Sept. I was impressed with the quality of infra, the hotels, food, sites, etc. A sh-thole it is not. I’m spending another week in Thrace later this month as a stopover on my way to Asia.

      Turkey was the seat of the eastern Roman empire that outlasted the western Roman empire. It was overrun by ottomans who while eing muslims were actually secular in their administrations, something the religious sh!tholes coming to power in this country can learn from. They also loved to resort to genocide to steal land, such is common with the sh!thole forefathers in this country.

      And turkish women are so hot.

      Istanbul’s GDP per capita is nearly identical to Miami, Orlando, and San Antonio; it is higher than Phoenix, Providence RI, Chattanooga TN, Rochester NY, and numerous others in the USA. It’s also higher than Berlin. Istanbul has better highway, airport, and transit infrastructure than practically every city in the United States. The city itself is clean, highly educated, and everyone has access to world class healthcare. They also have a crime rate that is below the US average, and this is achieved with a fraction of the law enforcement officers… Yeah, it’s a real S-hole.

        The comment was about Turkey, not one city in it. Plenty of sh#tholes have a few decent cities. Look at India as an example. It doesn’t change the overall perception of a country where many people live in mud huts and trade worthless trinkets back and forth for some olives to eat. When the average household is under $4,000 US, it’s a 3rd world country regardless of what a few at the top make.

          A “first world country” like the US also has some “third world” areas. Guess it’s a shathole also. Am I right?

      Your comment is a clear sign that you never been to Turkey and don’t know much about this country. Lol!

    I won’t go so far as calling Turkey a shathole but I am leary of supporting more quasi-dictatorships. We already support literal dictators too much as it is.
    That said, as an airline, I think there are more convenient routes that I would choose before choosing Turkish.

    I do about 150K miles per year on Star Alliance. I’ll do just about anything I can to avoid TK. I’ve found their service lacking and have gotten screwed out of day rooms on long layovers. Turkey itself is an awesome destination.

While not surprising, it is sad to see the growing list of carriers retiring this superjumbo jet. On Malaysia Airlines, I flew the #A380 once from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to London (LHR) and had the entire first class cabin to myself (full review on the blog). It was a beautiful flight that I will always remember.
