Why it worked
The video leverages a unique and high-profile event (the Pope's visit) combined with the visual transformation of a commercial aircraft, creating inherent interest and shareability.
Summary
This video shows how Air France transformed one of its Airbus A321 planes to transport the Pope during his visit to France. The aircraft was temporarily renamed "Cité du Vatican" and adorned with Vatican coat of arms, a mission that involved over 100 employees.

Product placement
Air France: ACTS - it is the airline that transports the Pope and has modified one of its planes for the occasion. Removing it would change the entire premise of the video. BFM Business: APPEARS - it is the news outlet reporting on the story. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
