Travel selfies on a budget

Delta Air Lines finds a way to add interest to millennials' dating profiles, no plane required.

It can be hard to make oneself look interesting on social media, especially when you’re on a budget.

But Delta Air Lines has millennials’ backs (or at least it does for those in NYC). The airline and agency Wieden + Kennedy New York teamed up on an artistic mural in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, posting scenes from nine global destinations on a wall to make selfie-taking – without leaving the neighbourhood – a snap.

Alongside the printed photos on the “#DeltaDatingWall” are adorable drawings of other destinations, illustrating the various places Delta actually flies, for those willing to book a ticket and get a real-deal selfie in, say, London or Paris.

A bonus for singletons: Delta and Tinder have also teamed up on an event June 17 where dating wall visitors can get a professional “travel” shot in front of their image of choice. After all, every good relationship begins with some untruth, right?
