[title]How to enter
This competition is organised by Time Out Digital Limited (“Time Out”) in association with British Airways Plc (“British Airways”). We want you to select your preferred island from the five featured Caribbean islands and tell us why you would like to escape to the Caribbean, including your name, area of London and a photo (the “Entry”). Submit your Entry by filling out the entry form found at www.timeout.com/caribbeanescape between 5 May 2015 and 6 May 2015 for your chance to be selected to win an invitation for you and a friend to come to Time Out’s amazing Caribbean Party at the Rum Kitchen in Notting Hill on 8 May 2015 (the “Event”). By attending the Event you will be in with a further chance to win a trip for you and a friend to the Caribbean island that you selected; departure imminent (the “Caribbean Holiday”) (together with Entry to attend the Event, the “Competition”).
Each of the five prizes for the Caribbean Holiday include a pair of World Traveller return flights from London Gatwick plus seven nights’ accommodation for two adults sharing a double room, on a bed and breakfast basis, as well as an itinerary of activities to be enjoyed at the Holiday Winners’ leisure.
The prize flights for the Caribbean Holiday will only be valid on the stated dates below so all entrants must ensure that they are free on these precise dates. The winner is responsible for any additional expenses, including transportation to and from the airport, all incidental expenses and insurance.
By entering the Competition you understand and consent that your name, area of London and Profile Image (as defined below) will be used in, reproduced and displayed upon Time Out-sponsored Exterion Media Cross Track Projection screens on the London Underground by Time Out for the purpose of the Competition. Time Out will keep your name, area of London and Profile Image securely in its system for six months after which your consent will expire. However, Time Out may keep your name, area of London and Profile Image in its historical archive for an indefinite period. You hereby consent to the use of your name, area of London and Profile Image by Time Out in accordance with the purpose and the conditions outlined above and within the terms of the UK Data Protection Act 1998.
How it works
Complete your Entry by telling us which out of the five Caribbean islands served by British Airways you would like to escape to, the reasons why and by including a profile image of yourself (the “Profile Image”), as well as your name and area of London. Once entrants have completed their Entry, they will be inserted into an island-specific ballot, based on which Caribbean island they want to escape to. After the End Date, a total of 100 entrants will be selected at random, 20 from each island’s ballot, to attend the Event with a friend. At the Event, the Event Winners’ (as defined below) names will be put into an island-specific ballot and, during the Event, one winner will be selected at random from each ballot who will win one of the Caribbean Holidays. Each of the five Caribbean Holidays is for two people to one of the five following Caribbean islands: Barbados, Grenada, St Kitts, Tobago and Turks & Caicos.
One destination will be allocated to each winner by Time Out based on the island they described in their Entry. All flights will depart from London Gatwick and the destinations and dates for each trip are confirmed as follows (all dates refer to 2015): Tobago (15 May – 22 May); Barbados (16 May – 23 May); Saint Kitts (16 May – 23 May); Grenada (16 May – 23 May); and Turks & Caicos (17 May – 24 May).
The dates of the flights are non-flexible.
