will be made.
11.3.2 Should the cost of the selected return (flight, bus or train) ticket be less than R5,000, the
balance will be deemed waived by the Winner. The Winner will not receive the balance in
credit, cash, vouchers or otherwise.
11.4 Each Winner must finalise their travel bookings by no later than 28 February 2025, with a return travel
