January 16, 2014 – Visa launched its first Olympic advertising spot during the NFL playoffs this past weekend. It features U.S. Olympic women’s ski jumping hopeful and Team Visa athlete, Sarah Hendrickson. The commercial – called Flying – shows Sarah as she soars through the air and we learn her Everywhere is to fly. The spot already has garnered hundreds of thousands of YouTube views, plus countless more through television.

Visa has supported the U.S. Women’s Ski Jumping Team since its beginnings in 2004 and will continue to do so as the sport makes its Olympic debut in Sochi. As a longtime partner and the exclusive payment services sponsor of the Games, Visa hopes to inspire others to imagine their own Everywhere.
