A nurse from the United Kingdom has won first prize in Qatar Airways’ ‘Fly and Win’ campaign; becoming a US dollar millionaire overnight.
Mr. Francis Capis is a National Health Service nurse from Crawley in the UK who originally comes from the Philippines.
The other two winners, from Kenya and Belgium, have respectively walked away with a brand new Porche Panamera and an elite Qatar Executive experience – return private jet flights and five-star hotel accommodation in the Maldives.
’Fly and Win’ was launched last November to reward its Privilege Club members. To enter the prize raffle, passengers had to register or be an existing member of Privilege Club and fly anywhere in the airline’s network between 01 November 2021 and 31 January 2022.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said: “It is our pleasure to have been able to break this fantastic news to three of our valued Loyalty Programme members.
“As the World’s Best Airline, we feel it is important to reward our Privilege Club members for their commitment to our success.
“On behalf of Qatar Airways, I would like to extend my personal congratulations to our campaign winners.
“There will be more exciting rewards offered by Qatar Airways in future, and we welcome any new joiners to our Privilege Club to take part and be in with a chance to win”.
Mr. Francis Capis said: “I just about remembered applying for the ‘Fly and Win’ draw, I knew at that time that I would be so lucky if the stars aligned.
“I don’t know what to feel, this is crazy! The sky really is the limit now, this will change my life, and that of my family’s forever. I will make sure I fly Qatar Airways for the rest of my life”.
The second lucky winner Mr. Alfred Machira from Kenya won a brand-new high-performance Porsche Panamera.
The third winner, Mr. Antonin Ferbus from Belgium was rewarded with a once-in-a-lifetime return private charter jet flight with Qatar Executive, a five-day trip for two in the Maldives in a five-star hotel – Six Senses Laamu, sponsored by Visit Maldives.
