Win a trip to Kennedy Space Center

Although NASA’s famed space shuttles no longer sail through the stratosphere, Port Canaveral’s Kennedy Space Center still offers an equal-parts-fun-and-educational experience that is out of this world! Celebrating its 50th anniversary, the centre remains an ongoing commercial rocket launch site and mesmerizes visitors with stories of space exploration that is unmatched by any facility on the planet. Guests can step inside the Vehicle Assembly Building where rockets are built; visit the Launch Control Center where NASA directors and engineers supervised all of the space shuttle launches; climb aboard the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo capsules; and much more. Port Canaveral is located just 40 minutes from Orlando, making the Kennedy Space Center an easily accessible day-trip for those already vacationing in the area. The centre is reaching out to the travel trade industry like never before with travel agent commissionable programs — a first for an attraction that hosts millions of visitors a year. Here’s your chance to win a prize package to see the Endeavour Shuttle Fly-Out on Sept. 17, 2012, at Florida’s Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. This incredible trip for two also includes roundtrip flights, three-day/two-night accommodation on Cocoa Beach, Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex park admission, VIP lunch for two with an astronaut, VIP tour of the Endeavour hosted by an astronaut, and tickets for a KSC Up-Close Tour.
