The entrant has an opportunity to invite their friends, say the 5 they want to take with them, should they win the prize, to sign up for the newsletter and competition.

In order to easily share the competition details with friends, a group has been set up on facebook.com.

You can “share” the competition this way with your friends or by using the link application and sharing the url http://www.wego.com/vipgetaway for the competition.
The newsletter will inform readers of the best travel deals, hotel stays, packages and flight deals on the market, which will be generated using wego.com’s superior search capabilities, which compare such prices across the board.
Wego.com (formerly Bezurk.com) allows travellers to search for flights, hotels, packages, travel deals and information across 100+ travel websites in the time that it normally takes to search just one.
