2024 ANA National Cherry Blossom Festival Sweepstakes: Enter for a Chance to Win a Trip to Tokyo on All Nippon Airways
Sweepstakes celebrates the strong travel demand to visit Japan
VOID WHERE PROHIBITED; NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER
Washington, D.C. [February 13, 2024] – All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan’s largest 5-star airline, and the National Cherry Blossom Festival, one of the world’s greatest celebrations of spring, are partnering to launch an airfare sweepstakes, inviting the public to enter for a chance to win a pair of round-trip tickets to Tokyo on ANA. The sweepstakes is open now through March 29, 2024 to all eligible U.S. residents ages 18 and older. One lucky winner will be chosen at random to receive a pair of economy class round-trip tickets to Tokyo from one of ANA’s gateway airports in the US.
“As increased travel demand to Japan continues, we wanted to extend an invitation and offer a roundtrip ticket opportunity to see all that Japan offers. We are proud to continue to sponsor the National Cherry Blossom Festival and support their efforts to celebrate the important relationship between Japan and the United States,” said Junko Yazawa, Executive Vice President, Customer Experience Management and Planning at ANA.
For every 100 entries the sweepstakes receives, ANA will continue their tradition of planting cherry blossom trees in the D.C. community, up to 30 trees. ANA has planted nearly 150 trees with the National Cherry Blossom Festival throughout the region, including at Washington Dulles Airport, Georgetown University, Langley High School, Walt Whitman High School, Thomas Jefferson High School, Northwestern High School, Oakton High School and more.
ANA continues to be a longtime supporter of the National Cherry Blossom Festival and is returning as a Leadership Circle Sponsor in 2024. ANA is also coming back this year as the Presenting Sponsor for the Festival’s ANA Stage at the Tidal Basin, as well as a Supporting Sponsor of the National Cherry Blossom Festival Parade® presented by Events DC.
ANA was founded in 1952 and is the largest airline in Japan, now directly flying to 10 North American destinations, including Washington, D.C. Servicing Dulles International Airport for nearly 40 years, ANA is eager to celebrate international travel to Japan with this sweepstakes.
The 2024 Festival continues to honor the historic gift of 3,000 cherry trees from Tokyo to Washington, D.C. What started as a simple ceremony in 1927 has grown into one of the world’s great celebrations of spring, creating joyful moments and memories throughout four weeks of food, fun, culture, and entertainment among the beautiful cherry blossom trees. This year’s festivities will take place March 20 through April 14. For more information, visit NationalCherryBlossomFestival.org.
