EAGAN, Minn. - (July 1, 2008) - Northwest Airlines (NYSE: NWA) today announced its inflight magazine, WorldTraveler, is sponsoring a photo contest inviting amateur and professional photographers to share their best travel photographs for a chance to win great prizes and be featured in the December issue of the magazine.
A panel composed of WorldTraveler editors and travel journalist Rudy Maxa will judge the photos and award three prizes in each of two categories - professional and amateur photography. The grand prize in each category will be two World Business Class tickets to accompany Rudy Maxa to an upcoming location for his public television show, "Rudy Maxa's World." Winners will photograph the destination, and their photos will be used in the DVD packaging for that episode of the show.

In order to be considered, submissions must include the photographer's name, category (amateur or professional), address, phone number, e-mail address and a short explanation of the photo - what it shows, when and where it was taken and what drew the photographer to the subject.
