So what does this mean? It probably means that we won't be using our free trip. First you have to nominate the months you want to travel. After Odenza receives your money, they will then source a travel date - what happens if you can't travel on that date? Do you forfeit the funds that you send in? Seems ridiculous to me!

My recommendation is pick the Canuck tickets - anyone out there take the Canuck tickets as an option? I would love to hear how that went!
