Delta Vacations Launches “Firsts That Last” Contest
As demand surges, the travel industry hasn’t been able to avoid significant price increases as a result of fuel costs, supply chain delays, and a bevy of other issues directly resulting from the two-year pandemic shutdown. So, while the wanderlust may be there for us Vacationers, sometimes the price tag is prohibitive. That’s why we were super excited to come across this new campaign from Delta Vacations that offers you and a guest a trip to some queer favorite destinations like Costa Rica, Greece, Hawaii, and England for FREE!
That’s right, Delta Vacations is launching a new, can’t-miss contest that will send 12 lucky winners on trips to select destinations around the world. The “Firsts That Last” contest highlights 12 of Delta Vacations’ best experiences and gives the winning couples, friends, or families the chance to travel with Delta Vacations for the first time—or try something new— to create lasting memories.
From staying in an overwater bungalow in Bora Bora to going on a private tour of the Vatican in Italy, each of the 12 vacations is crafted around creating new, meaningful, and memorable first-time experiences. This is just a glimpse into the experiences Delta Vacations offers in more than 330 destinations worldwide.
“We want customers to experience Delta Vacations in an unforgettable way—especially if it’s their first time traveling with us,” said Brian Canning, Chief Marketing, Product and Customer Experience Officer for Delta Vacations. “Going on vacation is more than just getting away, it’s personal. Delta Vacations curates vacations to fit every traveler’s needs, vacation style, and preference. We want travelers to experience the ease of planning a memorable vacation.”
To enter, participants will choose a destination from a provided list and answer corresponding questions detailing why they should win this “first” experience. Entries can be submitted on DeltaVacationsFirstsThatLastContest.com.
The prize vacations range in value from $4,000 to $22,000. All trips include the full Delta Vacations experience: airfare, accommodations for two or four people (depending on the prize vacation), and activities. Visit the contest webpage for more details on each prize and for the full official contest rules.
The contest is free to enter and it’s open now until November 19, 2022. If you can’t wait to find out if you won, all packages are available for booking through Delta Vacations.
