Competition 41*41

There is quite a good competition going on at Swiss at the moment. (I don't think this has been posted yet). Lots of prizes! If my arithmetic is correct there are 1681 flights to be won over the coming weeks (41 per day for 41 days, quite generous really(I've just won one - hooray!)
The "outside Switzerland" answer is 41. Maybe one of the Switzerland based members can help out on the "Swiss" answer (lowest price to a European city).

Not your day is it MarkC ?! I entered it without a problem. Winning is another matter!

Presumably one can enter daily?

Now can you enter every day or does one entry suffice for all daily drawings? Moreover, can you continue entering even after winning? The rules and regulations aren't that specific!

Yes! Just won..
But there's a downside.. Bookings are in E-class which is pretty low level and mostly not availabel out of OSL before they terminate services Oct. 26th.. :-(

Same questions here. I figured as long as they don't ban me I'll enter once a day...

Is that the same as a miles reward class? Or is the availability better ?

Well, I've just won one, and that's been with entering the competition each day. Can one win more than once, or is once the limit?

Do these permit for mileage accrual? Once I won a Swissair flight, for which miles were awarded. Am I right in thinking that we have 15 days from winning the competiton to book the ticket?

Yes, you have only 15 days to contact LX and claim your award, which then is valid for the next 6 months from the day of the draw which have own. If you do not claim within 15 days, you'll loose the prize! As availability for redemption is limited per flight, its best to book now, even if months in advance for the actual travel date. I've won today and booked for end October, with no problems! Cheers, Rogerio
