Transat announced the names of the second round of winners in its Surprise Dates Contest, part of the company’s 30th anniversary celebrations. Each has won a one-week all-inclusive package for two at a Grand Bahia Hotel, including Air Transat flights in Economy class. Here are the winners for March:

- Diana Fournier of Glenny Travel in Fort Erie, Ontario (Ontario-Atlantic region) won a trip to the Grand Bahia Principe La Romana in Dominican Republic

- Kathy Hannah of Roblin Travel Service in Chilliwack, British Columbia (Western Canada region) won a trip to the Luxury Bahia Principe Akumal Don Pablo Collection in Riviera Maya, Mexico

- Charlotte Ringeard of CAA Voyages in Quebec City (Quebec) won a trip to the Luxury Bahia Principe Fantasia Don Pablo Collection in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Transat also awarded $30 in Bonbon rewards to the following agents, selected by random draw; Jenn Black – Tripcentral Hamilton (Ontario/Atlantic region), Linda Landry – The Travel Store Prince Edward Island (Ontario/Atlantic region), Tabatha Bennet – Flight Centre Chilliwack (Western Canada region), Cassandra Finkbeiner – AMA Travel Alberta (Western Canada region), Cindy Augé – Club Voyages Raymonde Potvin (Quebec region) and Geneviève Hogue – Club Voyages élysée (Quebec region).

To mark their 30th anniversary, from February to November, Transat has preselected a ‘secret’ milestone date each month, from throughout Transat’s history. This month’s ‘surprise date’ was March 13, the day in 2006 when Transat acquired Canadian travel agency network Thomas Cook Travel Limited, marking an important milestone in the evolution of Transat's distribution sector.

Transat’s next “surprise date” will be in April and Transat will notify agents on the morning the date is announced that any Transat flight, package, or cruise sold that day will earn agents one chance to win a trip.

Three winners will be drawn from among eligible travel consultants in three Canadian regions – one in Quebec, one in Ontario-Atlantic and one in Western Canada.

Transat’s Surprise Dates Contest continues throughout the year and is open to consultants anywhere in Canada.
