A Picture Is Worth…A Free Airline Ticket

Pictures are such an easy thing to take nowadays.  Virtually everyone has a smartphone, and most smartphones take pictures as good (or sometimes better) than digital cameras.  For our family, that means lots more memories captured when we travel.  I was trying to think of a good contest to have this fall and  also happened to be reviewing some of our summer vacation pics.  And, that’s where I came up with the idea for the contest.

First, I’m giving away one free coach ticket in for travel on American Airlines in the continental US, Canada or Mexico.  Travel needs to be booked by the end of 2013, but can be completed at any time open for award availability either this year or next year.  How do you win?

E-mail me your favorite travel pictures.  They can be from any trip, any time, anywhere.  The only catch is they need to feature you (or your family).  Pictures can be e-mailed to ed -at- milepoint dot com.

I’ll select a handful of finalists, and if you’re one of the finalists you’ll have a few days to get your friends and family to vote for you via my blog, Facebook and Twitter.

I’ll also have some runner up prizes for pictures I think are great, including Amazon gift cards.

Finally, I’ll have a few prizes for people who vote to select a winner.

Get it?  Got it?  Good!

You have until midnight EDT on Monday, October 7th to submit your pics.

As with any contest, I reserve the right to exclude anyone who isn’t playing by the rules, including submitting photos that aren’t your own.  And, just in case you needed a few examples, here’s some ones of our family having fun on the road this summer.

BONUS POINTS:  $25 Amazon gift card to the first person who leaves a comment correctly identifying where in the world my daughter is standing on top of in the first picture.
