DALLAS McKinney + Silver has launched an $80 million campaign for Travelocity involving a gnome who is stolen from his owner and sent on a travel adventure, the client confirmed.

The effort is the first from the Raleigh, N.C.-based Havas shop, which in October won what was then a $30 million account.

In the new campaign, the Roaming Gnome, a two-foot-tall character with a red hat, long white beard and blue coat, writes to his owner about his cliff diving in Mexico, winter skiing, cheese eating in Quebec and flying.
