The ING Direct  promotion I announced it here finished on Aug. 31 and 3 readers used my Orange Key. I said in the post ‘$50 from ING Direct and at least 17 Air Canada eUpgrade Credits from me’ and to be clearer I will give enough eUpgrades to cover an overnight flight, but not more than 30 ( this is the small print :) ).

I used random.org and I allocated to each reader a number in the order they commented.

Boris 1
Chris 2
CanadianMillionMiler 3

And to make the draw more ‘exciting’ I decided to generate the numbers in sets of three until a number would come up twice and that number would be the winner.

The Result

Number 2 has been generated twice so Chris is the winner.

P.S. ING Direct Canada has been bought by Bank of Nova Scotia so I don’t think we will see any more of these $50 bonuses.

    Have a few long-haul AC trips (first time ever with them), any chance I could score one of those eUpgrades some other way?

    Woo Hoop!! Thanks Cynical Traveler. Just in time for me to fly back to Canada from Australia in a few weeks.

    Cheers,

    This is such a quick comment :) . How come you read the post so fast? Are you in Australia now? Whereabout?

    I was checking Boarding Area on my lunch break and I guess I saw it just as you posted. And yes, I’m in Australia now, been here for about a week with another two to go. I’m doing some work in a town called Mt Isa in Queensland, but will be heading to Brisbane at the end of the week.

    Working on a Sunday, that might an interesting post :)

    You know it. But when you’re in the middle of the outback in a mining town, might as well work on a Sunday ;)

  8. Chris said,

    And well done getting it right that it’s Sunday here.

    I have been to Australia, and I know they are ahead of Canada.
