The hunt is on! Here’s everything you need to know to win a FREE holiday from London Southend Airport
Get ready for the ultimate treasure hunt!
London Southend Airport has teamed up with Cash Hunt Essex to hide cash prizes and package holiday vouchers all over the county, and it’s up to you to find them.
Here’s everything you need to know to get involved #TheHuntIsOn.
What’s happening?
From Monday, November 4, London Southend and Cash Hunt Essex will be launching an epic, six-week ‘holiday hunt’. Each week, a new secret location will be revealed somewhere in Essex, where a cash prize or a holiday voucher for an easyJet holidays trip from our award-winning airport will be hidden. All you have to do is be the first to find it!
How to enter
It’s simple to get involved. Follow London Southend Airport and Cash Hunt Essex on social media, as we’ll be using these platforms to drop clues. Every Monday, for six weeks, we’ll post a secret location somewhere in Essex. These clues will lead you to the hiding spot of either a cash prize or a holiday voucher… and some added extras, if you’re lucky.
Once the location is posted, the race is on! The first person to find the hidden prize wins it on the spot. It’s all about speed, clever thinking, and a bit of Essex know-how. So, keep those notifications on, stay alert, and get ready to go holiday hunting. Only thing – and not to be a bore – but you must be 18 years or older to enter (read the T&Cs fine print here).
Prizes up for grabs
The prizes are seriously exciting! Each week, we’ll be hiding anything from a London Southend Airport Golden Ticket (free parking, free fast track and free access to our airport lounge), £100 cash or an easyJet holidays package holiday voucher. That’s right – not only could you walk away with a pocket full of cash, you might also win a free holiday for an amazing getaway worth up to £1,200:
- A Spanish getaway to Almeria, Spain
- A family holiday for FOUR to Reus worth more than £1,000
- Go mad for Morocco with a trip to Marrakech
- Christmas in Paris? That could be you!
- A weekend escape to Amsterdam is on the cards
- Pizza in Pisa with a trip to Italy
Holidays will be booked via our official holiday provider, Hays Travel Southend; a local travel agent in Southend High Street – your holiday, your way.
And that’s not all – random hunts will have a mixture of all three, and, on occasion, added extras too.
