Is your name Sydney? United Airlines may have a free ticket to Australia with your name on it…

To celebrate our new route between Houston, Texas and Sydney, Australia, we’re running a sweepstakes that calls on people with the name ‘Sydney’ to enter for a chance to win round-trip tickets to visit their namesake city — Sydney, Australia! Yes, you read that correctly—five ‘Sydneys’ and his or her invited guest will win a trip Down Under for five nights and travel on United’s very first nonstop flight from Houston to Sydney on January 18, 2018!

*We realize there are different ways to spell Sydney, so check out the Official Rules to see a list of eligible first and last names!

As it turns out, United is permitting 20 variations of the name Sydney to enter the contest.

  1. Sydney
  2. Sidney
  3. Sidnie
  4. Sidnee
  5. Sidneigh
  6. Sidni
  7. Sydnee
  8. Sydny
  9. Sydni
  10. Sidne
  11. Cydney
  12. Cidney
  13. Cidnie
  14. Cidnee
  15. Cidneigh
  16. Cidni
  17. Cydnee
  18. Cydny
  19. Cydni
  20. Cydne

The above names can be your first or last names.

Winners will receive:

  • Round-trip economy class airfare for two to Sydney
  • Five nights at The Westin Sydney
  • Access to local sights and attractions
  • $500 prepaid card to customize their trip

Note, the sweepstakes is only open to U.S. residents 18 years of age and older. Florida and New York residents are excluded…due to burdensome regulation.

Enter here no later than December 27, 2017 at 11:59 p.m. CT.

If you’re in Australia, United is running the same contest for any resident who is named Houston.
