When this commercial first came out, there were a couple of comments here and elsewhere (admittedly by detail-oriented geeks like me) that in spite of saying that they were in Milwaukee, it was pretty clearly in Denver. I see to recall that in one shot in the background was a solid glimps of the distinctive DEN terminal canopy roof. No such view in the link above.
The ops tower shown behind Larry the Lynx is not one in Milwaukee, and the plains behind the row of Frontier planes is also not MKE, but these shots are generic enough that most people wouldn't recognize they aren't MKE.
Anybody else remember a the background looking clearly more non-MKE?
I'll agree...
Anyone else see the new GE commercial? Shows a YX E jet in the hanger at MKE (subdtle, but clearly MKE if you're from there), and then later shows a YX connect Embraer with full titles showing...of course I saw this for the first time AFTER they announced they were going with F9. Kind of funny that YX is the only airline in the commercial...I'll try to find a link for it.
