With travel on the rise, businesses are doing everything they can to attract travelers. For example, Changi Airport Group (CAG) recently launched a 'Travel A to Z' competition. New campaigns and contests took passengers to mysterious destinations.
As part of 'Travel A to Z', CAG is releasing four letters, one each week, each representing a city. Interested participants had to identify the city from the letter of the week featured in the campaign video for a chance to win a round-trip ticket to that destination.
The correct answer for Weekly Mystery City was announced the day after the lottery for that location ended.
