SWISS is running a contest that will award 4 lucky winners each with a pair of tickets for admission to the Omega European Masters Golf Tournament that will be contested on between September 4 and 7. The tournament will take place at Golf Club Crans-Sur-Sierre in Crans Montana in the southwest of Switzerland.
I’m not sure if the tickets cover only one day of the tournament or the entire event as those details were not made clear in the terms and conditions of the contest. I would assume they cover all 4 days but don’t hold me to it!
Your entry requires you to answer a ‘skills’ question in order to be eligible. The question in this case is “How many hours in advance can you reserve a seat on you SWISS flight?”….Hint, the answer starts with a 4!
The contest is for tickets to the tournament only and does not include airfare or accomodation.
Good Luck!

Entering the contest is easy. All you need to do is answer a question regard SWISS’ service to Miami and provide your contact details. Hint, the answer lies between the number 1 and number 3. The entry deadline is this Sunday, August 17.
It looks like the contest is open to everyone. Additional Terms/Conditions can be found here.

SWISS is running a fare sale for Business Class travel from the USA to several cities in Europe with pricing start at $2200-2300 (New York – Zurich). Most East Coast and Midwest departures (Chicago) range between $2200 and $2400 while departures from San Francisco and Los Angeles range between $2900 and $3400.
Like most Business Class fare sales, these rates are approximately 50% off of their normal price and are actually very good deals. Traditionally you’ll find the best premium fares of the year during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Take advantage of them if you plan on visiting the Christmas Markets that start in Europe at the same time!
According to the terms/conditions (which were not provided in detail), it looks like the fare sale covers travel between November 22 through December 5. However, you may find variances based on specific city pairs.
Also pay attention to the operating carrier. Some of my search results gave me the option of flying United or Edelweiss. Make sure that if you are going to spend $2500 on the ticket, that you make certain that SWISS is operating your flight! I say this because SWISS has one of the best Business Class products between the USA and Europe and it would be a shame for you to spend the money and not experience their hospitality!
