TORONTO – Bonnie Redding of AMA Travel in Edmonton is the winner of Air Canada’s latest contest, which launched in a recent issue of Travelweek.

As the grand prize winner, Redding has won two roundtrip tickets from any Canadian city serviced by Air Canada to Melbourne, Australia, plus a seven-day tour that uncovers Victoria’s hidden gems with AAT Kings.

When reached for comment, Redding said she was “totally in shock”.

Air Canada’s nonstop Vancouver-Melbourne service first took off in December 2017 with four-times-weekly flights. Starting June 1, it will go year-round. Melbourne is Air Canada’s third destination in Australia, following Sydney and Brisbane.
