Flight Dates

How to set creative flight dates to control when each ad runs within a campaign

Setting flight dates for creative

Our creative flight dates feature gives you more control over when each creative runs within a line. Instead of running all creatives for the full line duration, you can swap out creatives across specific flight dates.

By default, each creative will run for the full line duration — but this is where creative flight dates comes in. You can adjust the dates for each creative to control when each goes live.

Example

  • Creative A runs: April 1st–15th

  • Creative B runs: April 16th–30th

  • Creative C runs: April 1st–30th

This is perfect for:

  • Rotating messaging mid-campaign

  • Testing different creatives over time

  • Promoting date-specific events or products

All the days in your line must be covered by at least one creative. If there's a gap, the platform will flag it and prevent you from moving forward until it's fixed.

Quick tip: If one creative ends on the 15th, the next should start on the 16th.

Review your setup

  • Hover over the timeline to double-check your dates

  • Make sure everything flows seamlessly from start to finish

  • If you're working with many creatives (8+), the individual flight date timelines will disappear and only the date range selectors will remain; however, you can still manage everything in the table view.
