UAE. The chance to win a million Dirhams is the highlight of Abu Dhabi Duty Free’s newly-unveiled big-budget promotion, “˜The Big Ticket Prize Draw’.

The scheme, formally unveiled during the recent 2005 Arabian Travel Market, is a re-launch of the retailer’s long-running and hugely-popular raffle. The winner receives AED1 million – US$272,000.

One raffle ticket (price US$136) will give purchasers a chance to win one of ten big prizes worth a total of AED1.5 million (US$408,000). The top non-cash prize is a Mercedes-Benz C200K.

Abu Dhabi & Al Ain Duty Free and Catering Managing Director Mohamed Mounib said: “The revamped raffle programme offers a new, varied product mix to everyone who chooses to make Abu Dhabi Airport and Abu Dhabi Duty Free their destination. We also aim to enhance our shopping schemes and incentives through the raffle programme for the passengers, tourists and visitors going through our duty free shops each day.

He said about 5.2 million passengers passed through the airport in 2004, “and with the expected expansion plan this number will most likely rise”.
