it states in the rules you must confirm via email or they move to the next person.
so i am not sure why some say they have just got a fedex package without knowing ahead of time
Incorrect. This is getting tiresome. READ THE RULES:

At the sole discretion of the Sponsor, disqualification, forfeiture and3. the selection of an alternate winner may result from any of the following: 4[1] potential winner's failure to respond to notification within two (2) business days after transmission; [2] the return of an email notification as undeliverable after three (3) attempts; [3] the return of any other notification as undeliverable; [4] potential winner's failure to provide Administrator with satisfactory proof of age, identity and residency; [5] potential winner's failure to provide Administrator with satisfactory proof that he/she is the authorized account holder of the Cell or Address associated with the winning Entry; [6] potential winner's failure to provide required additional information upon Administrator's request; [7] potential winner's failure to execute and return an Affidavit of Eligibility/Liability/Publicity Release within five (5) business days after its mailing; [8] potential winner's failure to be available to make either Trip 1 or Trip 2 on Sponsor-selected dates between June 1, 2012 and June 1, 2013; [9] potential winner's failure to validly claim any prize by May 30, 2012 and [10] any other non-compliance with Rules. In the event of any prize forfeiture, the Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, award or not award the forfeited prize to an alternate winner. The Group must travel together on the same itinerary and members of the Group are solely responsible for obtaining all necessary travel documents (i.e. valid photo I.D, passport etc.) before departure. All members of the Group will be required to execute a Release of Liability prior to ticketing. Anyone in the Group who is a Minor must be accompanied on the Trip by his/her parent/legal guardian ("Parent") as one of the Group, who must sign and return all required documentation. Minors must be accompanied at all times during Trip 1 and Trip 2 (including, but not limited to, in-flight, and all prize-related events) by his/her Parent.. Each Canadian resident who is a potential winner will be required to answer correctly a mathematical skill testing question without assistance of any kind whether mechanical or otherwise to be declared a winner and be eligible to collect a prize. All taxes are solely the responsibility of each winner, who (except for any Canadian) will receive an IRS Form 1099 reflecting the value of his/her prize.

In conclusion, NOWHERE does it state they will notify you of a win via email or that failure to respond to said non-existent email will result in forfeiture. They will contact you for your mailing address "as appropriate" (if they don't have it already on file) so they can send you a notification of your potential win.
