Oh, bullsh*t.
22% discount
What about my wife?

Funny how that discount took priority over the rest

If it's a spoof, it's brilliant.

If it's not a spoof, it's even more brilliant! I loved the way that the DNA tests and the discounts seemed to take each person by surprise and seemingly change them.

Well done.

The first guy who gets the news doesn't seem so bad. He just seems to be someone who never really contemplated it. Probably has a job with no paid vacation

The 22% guy is hysterical, when he finds out. He wants to know about his wife.

Brilliant and kudos to Aeromexico and its ad agency for coming up with this idea, which is bold, humorous, and effective on so many levels.

Thanks for posting. It made my Friday.
