It means that you will have to buy tickets for goining there. And also, spend money on accommodation and other things. Undecided

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

r................return tickets means both to and fro journey, so you dont have to buy tickets to go there....but yea other costs like accomodation etc you'll have to pay

Ranjith

Ranjith

You should write a post on the topic 

Pick a destination that you would like to visit in 2014 and tell how you would travel smart to this destination.

and publish it on your blog and submit the URL of that pot by clicking the 'Submit your Entry' button on this page. Laughing

I wished the TnC were defined here ,

like the travel period, transferability and taxes .

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

i think its just the flight tickets and not a holiday package, so i guess they'll let winners choose coming/going dates and winners will have to bear other expenses except the ticket fare..............of course i'm just doing guess work here

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

I think there will be no taxes... like all other contests Cool

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

yea they'd have mentioned taxes like they did for wechat..........but other costs like accomodation.visa etc winner will have to pay i guess

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

BK Yes Tongue out

Renie Ravin
from Chennai |

@Disha, I see where you're coming from. Don't worry about the taxes; but let me get back to you on the others!

What is the context of return tickets? Innocent Round trip tickets or only return tickets?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

I thought that they are  only one way ( for returning ) tickets. ND said that they are round trip tickets. Renie is silent. Tongue out

Narasimha Sharma Veturi
from Hyderabad |

I searched around the net for the meaning of Return Tickets and they mean that you can go and come back from a place, but it should be in the same route.

Nandini Deka
from Bombay |

return ticket generally means round trip ( tickets only )...wont it look odd if they give only the return ticket not the going ticket?? we have to go first to return right eh or am i making sense??InnocentFoot in mouth
