CHICAGO, Jan. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of Team USA's participation in the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games 2018 in PyeongChang, South Korea, United Airlines is shining a spotlight on the "super," 38-year relationship between the airline and the United States Olympic Committee. Titled "Superheroes," a new advertising campaign demonstrates the unique powers necessary to get to the Games – whether that's the exceptional athletic skills of Team USA athletes or the hard work of United employees responsible for flying Team USA and customers to the moments that matter most. This campaign will appear on television, online, in print and outdoor, in airports and on board United aircraft throughout the Games and can be viewed at united.com/teamunited.

Team USA Olympic and Paralympic Athletes and United Airlines’ Employees Star in New Campaign

"Superheroes" celebrates the six U.S. Olympic and Paralympic athletes sponsored by United and their extraordinary moves on the slopes and ice, as well as six United employees selected to represent the 90,000 United team members who go above and beyond to get customers to their destinations safely, comfortably and on time.

"The tie between superheroes and Team USA athletes is clear – they are regular people who use their exceptional talents to accomplish the incredible," said Mark Krolick, vice president, marketing at United Airlines. "For close to four decades, our employees have called upon their unique skills – transporting hundreds of thousands of customers every day, while working in rapidly changing weather conditions and providing exceptional service – to give the 'power of flight' to Team USA athletes, getting them to competitions around the globe."

The superheroes featured in the campaign include:

Team USA Athletes

  • Air Raider – 2014 Olympic silver medalist freeskier Gus Kenworthy of Telluride, Colorado. His power of flight is only matched by his perpetual chase of the origins of winter and how to harness its energy.
  • Arctic Angel  – Snowboarder Jamie Anderson from South Lake Tahoe, California – 2014 Olympic gold medalist and protector of the mountains' most precious resource, fresh powder.
  • Ice Lightning – Quicker than a bolt in a storm, silver and bronze speedskater J.R. Celski from Federal Way, Washington, is a blur for even those with the keenest eye.
  • The Rocket  – Hailing from Remsen, New York, 2014 Olympic bronze medalist luger Erin Hamlin's power of speed and invisibility leaves the competition at the starting line.
  • King Quad  – With the power of the quadruple jump, Salt Lake City, Utah, figure skater Nathan Chen can take any material and spin it into gold.
  • The Fury – Defender of all that need preservation, two-time sled hockey Paralympic gold medalist Nikko Landeros from Johnston, Colorado, brings his power of intensity to the ice in search of the coveted trio of gold.
