Air Canada together with United Airlines and partner Visit Alentejo, are embarking on their 2023 Amazing Race to Lisbon, Portugal and Open Jaw is on location with the participants.

Fifteen travel advisors from across Canada and fifteen from the U.S. are participating in the airlines' ‘Amazing Race’-style competition of games and scavenger hunts in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Evora on 18APR.

The group explores the cobblestone streets of the city on foot when they arrive Monday 17APR to get the lay of the land before dividing into groups of 5, with Open Jaw's Karen Dahdah leading one group of eager agents hoping to win the grand prize.

The team that completes the circuit of skill testing activities will win a prize from Air Canada valued at over $1500 each.

In addition to the Air Canada Race, the agents will take part in a workshop with local tourism hotel partners as well as experience a three-day post race FAM tour.

Participants are ready for a non-stop week of competition, teamwork and activities. Stay tuned to Open Jaw's social channels for up to the minute posts from Lisbon.
