Transavia’s brilliant idea was to create a snack packaging that doubled as an aeroplane ticket to a low-cost destination. A โฌ35 packet of crisps would buy you a one-way ticket from France to Barcelona, a โฌ40 bag of gummy bears would take you to Lisbon, or a โฌ40 cereal bar would get you to Dublin. Simply walk into your local Carrefour supermarket, buy the snack, and then enter the code found inside the packaging to redeem your ticket and choose your outbound flight.
