Get Caught in the ACK!

We all know the Daffodil Festival is a time of to celebrate spring with neighborly cheer. And this year, Nantucket Airlines is making the weekend even sweeter by giving away 25 round-trip tickets for travel between Hyannis and Nantucket! In order to win a ticket, an appointed person must spot you carrying out a "Random ACK of Kindness" over the course of Daffodil Weekend.

Various Nantucket Airlines employees will be on hand at all the Daffodil events, but will not be identifiable as ticket givers. They will be on the lookout for good deeds as simple as holding a door for someone who is struggling with a stroller, or picking up some paper that has fallen out of the
trash. Trish Lorino, Nantucket Airlines Director of Marketing, states, "The main goal is to promote the spirit of Nantucket that [islanders] get to enjoy all year, and visitors only get to taste."

Tickets will be valid for one year from the date of issue and can be used on Nantucket Airlines flights between Hyannis and Nantucket. The employee- owned company operates up to 600 flights per day, so if you win, you'll be sure to find something that suits your schedule perfectly. With a little extra goodwill this Daffodil Weekend, you might be surprised with a free chance to come bACK again soon. You never know who might catch you doing a random ACK of Kindness!
