Viewers can enter the contest to win a trip aboard the custom-made millennium party plane that will take winners on a global adventure. The plane takes off from New York on December 20th and picks up additional winners around the world. The final stop will be back at MTV's Times Square studios in New York for a New Year's Eve celebration with performances by the Goo Goo Dolls, 98 Degrees and others. Viewers can call the 800-number or log onto MTV.com or America Online for a one-time only opportunity to enter the contest.
