Tickets are booked, bags are packed and easyJet is set to launch its first 15 Hour Blogger Challenge to four secret destinations.

Each week throughout October a prominent travel blogger will fly with easyJet to an undisclosed location within Europe to take on the challenge of visiting as much of the city as possible - within a 15 hour timeframe and on a limited budget.

To complete the challenge each blogger will receive:

- One return ticket to the destination

- £100 spending money

- An easyJet destination guide for the secret city

- Overnight accommodation

Each blogger’s journey can be followed on Twitter and Foursquare and will be captured on camera and uploaded onto YouTube and Facebook with a link to their travel blog outlining the destination and experience.

Once all four journeys are complete it will be up to the easyJet Facebook community to vote for the trip they feel best captures the secret destination in terms of uniqueness, value for money and entertainment within the boundaries set. All those who cast a vote will be in with a chance of winning a short break to the featured winning city!

The four travel bloggers are -

1. Kash Bhattacharya from Europe Budget Guide (http://www.europebudgetguide.com/) (http://twitter.com/budgettraveller)

2. Paul Smith from Twitchhiker (http://twitchhiker.com/) (http://twitter.com/twitchhiker)

3. Karen Bryan from Europe a la Carte (http://www.europealacarte.co.uk/blog/) (http://twitter.com/karenbryan)

4. Matt Preston from Travel With A Mate (http://www.travelwithamate.com/) (http://twitter.com/travelwithamate)

You can also follow the challenges right here on Facebook or on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/easyjet. Also, look out for the feature articles in the November and December issues of the easyJet Traveller Inflight magazine.

So, the big question… What European destinations should we send our bloggers to?

After the suspension of its operations, Skyeurope is informing the travelers about ticket refund. Due to bankruptcy, Skyeurope has ceased operations since the 1st September 2009. Travelers who bought a ticket via its website and paid by credit card can revert to the credit card department of their bank for ticket refund. If the ticket was bought using any other payment mode, the ticket refund might not be possible. For travelers who bought their ticket with a travel agency, Skyeurope ticket refund after bankruptcy may be possible but they must deal directly with the concerned agency.
