Does anyone know why the half-price tickets have been withdrawn? Pity: I have been to a lot of trouble to set up an account and get points into it, and these tickets were the only thing I wanted out of all their offers.

Probably because the code that should be used only once for members who exchanged the 50 points could in fact be used by anyone;)

Sheesh...can't you read......

We very much regret this course of action which is necessary due to
fraudulent use of these promotions


I did warn that the posting of these codes online was a risk.

We've only got ourselves to blame.
A real shame.

Hope they sort this out for WorldPoints members soon, otherwise no point topping up my account.

My reading of is that they will reintroduce the scheme or bring in some equivalent when they have done the programming work to make the codes single use.

Hello!

The 1/2 prices tickets are not back on BAA worldpoints yet and none of the codes for the Heathrow express listed here are working...

I also tried Hot UK deals but could not find anything in there.

Does someone have a working code around??

I would hate to pay the over-priced tickets but I have to be at the airport really early and tube not running yet...can anyone help?

Thanks!

You can get £5 off a return (not singles) by booking on thetrainline using code LTTL5D. This one won't be around much longer - the offer expires in a week or so but can still be used for travel after that if you buy the tickets now.

OR if it starts early enough get Heathrow Connect - it takes 5 minutes longer but about half the price.

If you join BAA Worldpoints online (just fill in a simple form - nothing to it) they credit you with 100 points which is enough to buy 2 tickets half price on Stansted/Gatwick/Heathrow Express (amongst other things).

There are some possibilities to earn more points as well, mostly by buying things at airports - there is a refer a friend scheme but you have to put in their postal address....

enjoy your trip!


Official Insert:

50 points per person gives you half price travel on the airport rail links above. Other member benefits include discounts off car hire although this may not be the cheapest place to get it. Use the comparison links at the top of this page to see if you can find it cheaper. Click on Worldpoints Rewards on the bottom left hand side to read more about the rewards available.

No longer available I'm afraid.
