NEEDHAM, Mass., March 1, 2016 – TripAdvisor®, the travel planning and booking site, today announced the launch of its “Book to Win: Trip-A-Day Giveaway” sweepstakes to educate users that they can plan and book on TripAdvisor and to celebrate the growing global inventory of bookable hotels available on the site.
U.S. travelers who make a hotel reservation directly on tripadvisor.com or through the TripAdvisor app using Book on TripAdvisor between Tuesday, March 1 and Thursday, March 31 will be automatically entered into the sweepstakes. All other sweepstakes entries must be submitted through the online entry form. Entrants will have a chance to win one of 31 $1,500 trip prizes, as well as a one-time grand prize of $15,000 for a trip anywhere in the world.
“We’re thrilled to announce our Book to Win: Trip-A-Day Giveaway sweepstakes to reward our loyal community of travelers planning and booking on TripAdvisor,” said Barbara Messing, chief marketing officer at TripAdvisor. “TripAdvisor is in the business of delivering memorable experiences to our audience and helping them plan and book to have their best trip, every time they travel. During the month of March a few lucky hotel bookers are going to get help from TripAdvisor in a different way since their prize money will fund their trips.”
U.S. residents 18 and older are eligible to enter the sweepstakes. All entrants are allowed one entry per email address and can only win once. The grand prize winner and winners of the $1,500 prizes will be randomly selected and notified in early April. TripAdvisor’s sweepstakes partner will work directly with winners to plan and book their prize trips.
