This morning’s HOT 1027 Breakfast was pure island magic as we wrapped up the “Nosy Be or Not To Be” competition with Airlink — live from our grand finale outside broadcast!

After weeks of fun, tricky trivia, and dreams of turquoise waters, two lucky listeners walked away with the ultimate prizes — each worth around R150 000 — and a one-way ticket to absolute paradise.

🎉 Winner 1: Premilla Pillay will be heading to Sakatia Lodge, a breathtaking island retreat surrounded by coral reefs and vibrant marine life. She and her partner will enjoy seven nights of barefoot luxury, plus R10 000 spending money to soak up everything Madagascar’s “Island of Perfume” has to offer — from diving and snorkeling to lazy beach days and unforgettable sunsets.

🌴 Winner 2: Judith Harding scored the Time + Tide adventure, spending seven dreamy nights split between Tsarabanjina and Tsara Komba Lodge — two of Madagascar’s most exclusive eco-luxury escapes. Add R10 000 spending money, and you’ve got the recipe for an adventure worthy of a travel magazine cover.

Thanks to Airlink, Sakatia Lodge, Constance Tsarabanjina, Time + Tide, Tsara Komba Lodge, and MadagasCat Travel, our finalists experienced a once-in-a-lifetime finale — complete with boarding passes, Airlink’s brand-new E2 aircraft, and the unforgettable moment when those two prize letters were found inside the Skyways inflight magazine.

From all of us at HOT 1027 — congratulations to Premilla and Judith! Paradise awaits!
