Jersey City travelers can enter two no-purchase drawings and spot prize-request red flags before sharing details.
Jersey City residents have two verified travel drawings that allow entry with no purchase necessary. A sweepstakes is a drawing where an entry gives a chance to win, not a promised trip. Both options are open to eligible New Jersey residents and allow entry without purchase.
This guide shows what each drawing offers, what limits apply, and how to enter safely.

Which no-purchase travel drawings include Jersey City?
According to Southwest Airlines Co., its Rapid Rewards Sweepstakes runs Jan. 1-Dec. 31, 2026.
It allows entry by online form with free Rapid Rewards enrollment, as described in Southwest Airlines Co. sweepstakes rules. It is open to legal residents of the 50 U.S.
plus D.C. age 18 and older, excluding Alaska, which covers Jersey City. According to Allegiant Travel Company, its 2026 Colts Touchdown Flyaway allows entry with no purchase or payment necessary.
Purchase does not improve chances, as explained in Allegiant Travel Company flyaway terms. It limits eligibility to legal U.S. residents, including New Jersey.
Entry is a chance to win, not a promised trip.
Do you meet the age, location, and account limits?
Check the rules before you enter. Age, location, and dates decide if an entry counts. No purchase necessary means you do not need to buy to enter or win.
Free means different: you still need time, internet access, and any required free account. Save the rules page and your confirmation if you get one. Use them to check dates and entry limits.
- Confirm your age and state meet the residency rule.
- Confirm the end date has not passed.
- Confirm what free account or form the entry uses.
How do you enter without paying?
Use only the sponsor's entry form and required free account. Do not pay a fee to enter a no-purchase-necessary drawing. According to the Federal Trade Commission, it never demands money, threatens arrest, or promises a prize.
The same guidance directs people targeted by prize scams to report at ReportFraud.ftc.gov, as explained in Federal Trade Commission guidance on prize scams. Treat a request for payment, gift cards, or bank details to claim a win as a stop sign. Pause, keep the message, and check the sponsor's rules before you respond.
Where do Jersey City residents report a problem?
New Jersey residents who suspect a sweepstakes problem can file an online consumer complaint with the Division of Consumer Affairs. According to the N.J. Division of Consumer Affairs, help is available at 1-800-242-5846 in New Jersey or 973-504-6200.
Find the filing options in N.J. Division of Consumer Affairs complaint information. Keep copies of entries, confirmations, and rules pages until winners are announced.
Check the end date on the sponsor's page before you share personal details.
