Travel + Leisure logo

Though you may not be able to hop on a plane today, Discover Puerto Rico wants you to at least start imaging your trips in the future.

This week, Discover Puerto Rico announced its new partnership with JetBlue and San Juan Marriott, which have all come together to inspire travelers to plan a future trip and give away a vacation to one lucky person who actually takes part in the exercise.

“Puerto Rico is a great option for travelers seeking warm temperatures, rich history, abundant natural attractions, delectable cuisine, and an international flair,” Brad Dean, CEO of Discover Puerto Rico, shared in a statement. “The Island is an ideal place to visit when responsible travelers are ready, given the prioritization of health and safety measures and entry requirements in place to ensure a safe vacation.”

Here’s how it works: The three companies invite travelers to pick any week of 2021 and block their digital calendars for a “vacation in Puerto Rico.” Participants need to include the subject line on the calendar event, “Fly JetBlue to Puerto Rico.” Then, simply include [email protected] as a participant on the calendar invite to secure entry to the giveaway and press send.
