According to several global polls, Denmark is the happiest country in the world. As coincidence has it, McCann discovered that the Danish flag was also hidden within the Coca-Cola logo. It was too big an opportunity to pass up on, and so McCann decided to take this discovery to Denmark’s biggest airport. Traditionally travellers are welcomed to the airport by locals waving flags, but quite often people don’t take part, and the welcome isn’t quite as grand as it could be. In a bid to create a happy welcome into the world’s happiest country, McCann created a special poster that allows people to take flags straight from the Coca-Cola logo.
