The Official Airline of TEDxWinnipeg

May 24, 2018 | Blog

We’re pleased to announce that Air Canada is now the official airline of TEDxWinnipeg! Air Canada becoming one of our valued sponsors this year will have an added benefit for someone this year — one of our guests will be awarded return airfare for two to one of over 200 destinations worldwide! There’s a tiny bit of fine print for these promotional tickets, of course — they’re valid for travel on Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge and Jazz scheduled flights only, and you need to fly by the end of next year, 2019.

To be eligible, you must register for TEDxWinnipeg by the end of May, so if you haven’t registered already, that gives you just one week. If you’ve already registered, share the news with friends and family — especially if they’re likely to take you as their “+1” on the flight! Your odds of being selected are better than the last 50/50 or 649 ticket you purchased, and — now here’s the important part — you get a full day of inspiring, challenging, and informative talks on June 13th. It doesn’t get better than that, so what are you waiting for?
