Post the photo on Instagram and include the hashtag #JourneyOnContest, and a caption that describes your photo and your journey.

Or…

2) Enter the Daily Sweepstakes without use of a mobile device: Send an email to [email protected] and include the following information: your name, address, daytime phone numbers, and date of birth. You will receive one (1) entry into the applicable Daily Entry Period drawing for each email message sent.

Entry Limit: You may enter the Promotion up to three (3) times per day during the Promotion Period by any combination of entry methods.

- Multiple entrants are not permitted to share the same email address. Any attempt by any entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, Instagram accounts, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that entrant's entries and that entrant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the entrant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address.

Grand Prize (1): Two (2) first-class roundtrip tickets to any location in the fifty (50) United States or Canada and 245,000 IHG Rewards Club Points. Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”): $8,355 USD.

First Prizes (26) (one (1) awarded per Daily Entry Period) Each winner will receive 35,000 IHG Rewards Club points. ARV: $140 USD.

NOTE: You will need an IHG Rewards Club account ("Account") to receive the prize. If you don't already have an Account, visit http://www.ihg.com/hotels/us/en/rewardsclub/home and following the links and instructions to create an Account. Creating an Account is free. The prize will be credited directly into the Account for each winner.

Winner Selection and Notification: After the Promotion Period, a panel of qualified judges determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion will select the entrant with the highest-scoring Submission (the "potential Contest Winner") from among all eligible Submissions based on the following criteria (“Judging Criteria”):

- Creativity/Originality (33%);
- Quality of Submission (33%); and
- Fit to Contest Theme (34%)

In the event of a tie, the entrant whose Submission received the highest score for Fit to Contest Theme as determined by the qualified judges, in their sole discretion, will be deemed the potential Contest winner. The potential Contest Winner will be notified by Instagram Direct. (Which doesn't make a whole lot of sense since the rules allow one to enter without using Instagram. Probably an oversight by the sponsor when writing the rules.)

Contest Starts On: Monday, 22 September 2014

Contest Ends On: Friday, 17 October 2014

The wording's quite specific actually, but I had to read it a couple times to figure it out myself. The non-Instagram entry is only for the Daily Prizes of IHG points. The only way to enter for the main prize of flight + IHG points is by Instagram.
