Oregon resident wins every travel aficionado’s dream: one million frequent flier miles to journey around the world
Chris Knight has reason to smile – one million reasons to be exact. The Oregon resident is feeling like a “millionaire” after being presented with the grand prize in Outrigger Hotels & Resorts’ “One Million HawaiianMiles Sweepstakes” (www.outrigger.com/winner).
Knight now has the world at his fingertips – literally the world, as the one million HawaiianMiles will allow Knight to travel anywhere Hawaiian Airlines and its partners fly. This means Knight can travel to any of Outrigger’s dream destinations, which include hotels and resorts on Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and Hawaii’s Big Island, as well as other exotic locales such as Bali, Fiji, Guam, Australia, and Phuket, Thailand. With more than 30 properties in some of the world’s greatest destinations, Outrigger has the right accommodation choice to meet any traveler’s needs.
“Winning this prize is a dream come true, and I’m so thankful to Outrigger for this amazing opportunity,” said Knight. “My wife and I are still in shock. It’s almost overwhelming to think of where the first destination is going to be and how many ways you can use one million HawaiianMiles.”
Three second-place prizes of a five-night stay at the oceanfront Outrigger Reef on the Beach in Waikiki were also awarded to Rose Blackmon of Chula Vista, CA; Cadman Kanahele of Honolulu, HI; and William Brett Beene of Mexia, Texas. Ideally situated between famed Waikiki Beach and the entertainment center of Waikiki, the newly transformed Outrigger Reef on the Beach is a stunning oceanfront haven of casual elegance, comfort, gracious hospitality, and unparalleled commitment to Hawaiian culture. Completely transformed, the resort offers spacious new guest rooms and suites featuring superb décor and an array of contemporary new amenities.
“The amount of interest in this promotion was colossal,” said Robert L. Solomon, senior vice president and chief marketing officer of Outrigger Enterprises Group. “In addition to holding an exciting sweepstake with a must-have prize, we wanted to draw attention to our presence within the growing realm of social media. We were able to do exactly that, increasing our e-mail list, Facebook fans and Twitter followers exponentially. We look forward to staying engaged with our on-line community who can look forward to more insider tips, the latest information on events and activities, special Twitter and Facebook offerings, and so much more,” Solomon concluded.
As a mahalo (thank you) to everyone who participated in the sweepstake, Outrigger invites anyone who wants to keep Outrigger’s Hawaii in sight all the time to log on to www.outrigger.com/winner and download for free five stunning wallpaper images of the islands for their desktop or laptop.

With rates starting as low as $79 per night at the OHANA Waikiki Malia, or $135 at the Outrigger Kanaloa at Kona on Hawaii’s Big Island, or $169 per night at the Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation on Kauai, a summer vacation in Hawaii is a great choice for a fun, memorable, and affordable holiday.
