What Happens in Macau is Worth Sharing Says Cathay Pacific

Award-winning airline’s sweepstakes features Venetian Macao Resort Hotel package

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--What happens in one famous city may stay in that city, but what happens in Macau is worth sharing with everyone.

“We’re proud to be Hong Kong’s home carrier”

Cathay Pacific Airways today launches a sweepstakes that will take two lucky winners to this special Asian island enclave for an unforgettable experience.

“We’re proud to be Hong Kong’s home carrier,” said Dennis Owen, vice president, marketing, Americas, for Cathay Pacific. “One of the great things about Hong Kong is its close proximity to another Chinese treasure – Macau. Here one can spend the morning touring history and the evenings making history in what has become Asia’s premier gaming center.”

The sweepstakes prize package includes:

• Round-trip economy class tickets for two to Hong Kong from any Cathay Pacific U.S. gateway city
• CotaiJet™ Ferry ride for two to Macau direct from Hong Kong International Airport
• Five nights luxury accommodations at The Venetian Macao Resort Hotel
• Spa treatment for two
• Romantic dinner for two at Portofino restaurant
• Tickets for two to Cirque du Soleil show Zaia

Open only to legal residents of the 50 United States (including District of Columbia) who are at least 18 years old at the time of entry. Employees of Cathay Pacific Airways LTD, ePrize, LLC and their parent and affiliate companies, suppliers as well as the immediate family (spouse, parents, siblings and children) and household members of each such employee are not eligible. More information, including complete contest terms and conditions, and online entry is available by visiting www.cathaypacific.com/us. Sweepstakes ends at 11:59 p.m. EDT on 31 March 2011.

Cathay Pacific’s Web and social media sites have become a treasure trove of unique offers and sweepstakes including the recent Art of Dessert contest where the winning entry will be featured as a catering selection onboard the airline’s flights as well as the very popular Travel the World in 80 Days sweepstakes in which the winner receives 80 days of complimentary travel on Cathay Pacific’s extensive network.
