Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the low-fare national airline of the UAE, on Monday (July 25) launched the #GetLostwithWizz competition in the UAE. The competition will take travellers to a mystery destination within Wizz Air Abu Dhabi network.

A Wizz Air plane full of adventure seekers will take flight to an undisclosed destination, where they will then spend the weekend ‘getting lost’ in a new experience. The flight will depart from Abu Dhabi on Friday, August 26, and return on Sunday, August 28, 2022.

The competition to win a seat opens today (July 25), and to be in for the chance of winning, applicants must share a post on Instagram of their most memorable travel moment, and tag @WizzAir with the hashtag #GetLostwithWizz by midnight on August 7, 2022.

Standout posts, with the most creative, adventurous, exciting, or humorous pictures – which also have the highest engagement – will stand the best chance of winning a ticket.

The 100 winners will get a chance to embark on the thrill of the unknown together with one partner, receiving free flight tickets, two nights’ accommodation, and travel insurance.

The competition starts at 14:00 GST on July 25 and closes at 23:59 GST on August 7. In order to be eligible, entrants must have a public profile and follow @WizzAir on Instagram.

Michael Berlouis, Managing Director of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, said: “We are very excited to launch our ‘#GetLostwithWizz’ competition, with a flight to an exciting, yet unknown destination. Whether it’s a vibrant city or natural paradise, the Wizz Air Abu Dhabi network offers exotic, culturally rich, and diverse destinations."
