Biggest Contest on Bucket List Publications

Posted on July 5, 2013 by lesleycarter

Do you dream of visiting Fiji? Is it one of your bucket list items? Seeing as I’ve been to Fiji and you’ve followed along with my adventures, I’d like to give you the opportunity to follow in my footsteps as well. Fiji Airways officially launched as Fiji’s national airline, retiring the ‘Air Pacific’ brand. Nalin Patel, the airline’s Chairman says, “The name ‘Fiji Airways’ proudly represents all Fijians and all that our 333 beautiful islands stand for – we are honored to be Fiji’s flying ambassador to the world.” And I am honored to work with Fiji Airways to give away two round trip tickets to Fiji via LAX.

From July 8th to July 19th, you will have multiple opportunities to enter the two round trip ticket giveaway.

From skydiving, racing dune buggies, surfing, snorkeling, white-water rafting, zip-lining, and waterfall jumping, I was able to experience unbelievable adventures in Fiji. If cultural connections are more your travel style, Fiji’s people are known as the friendliest people in the world. Attend a Kava Ceremony to see what I’m talking about. Do you prefer luxury and relaxation? Matangi offers exclusive luxury at its finest. More of a foodie? Castaway Island, Fiji is a treat for the taste buds. Whatever your pleasure, you’ll find it in Fiji. I certainly did!

Fiji Airways has released new schedules for travel throughout 2013 which will mean increased frequencies between Fiji and some of its biggest tourism markets. The new schedules will increase connectivity between the South Pacific Islands, New Zealand and Australia, and Hong Kong and the USA via Nadi; and the world via the airline’s interline partners.

Get ready to explore and say Bula to Fiji!

Stay tuned for the official contest links, rules, and entry opportunities!
