    Hey,

    I don't have a family yet, but a lot of the "Family Holidays" do look good.
    Do/are you allowed to enter if you only ever go with a partner/friend. (i.e. don't take the Child places, and only use the 2 Adult places).

    Cheers

    I often wonder this, but then I think I'd feel it was a bit of a waste if I won it and did that. There are lots of other holiday competitions on here where the prize is just for 2 people and people with families may not be able to go if they won so I tend to leave the family ones for them.
    Thanks to all posters!

    I don't think it'll be a problem to be honest. Promoters probably won't mind as it'll end up costing them less money.

    Wasn't there a problem not long ago though with a Disney Comp, terms and conditions stating 2 adults & 2 children, and if you didn't have that they wouldn't let you go? Trying to find the thread now

    yes it did state that
    something like there MUST be a child under 14 or something
    unfortunately people still entered and some kicked up a bit of a fuss too
    shame though
    it was a fantastic competition

    By the way, just to clarify I was referring to comps where the terms and conditions aren't very specific. Obviously if the terms and conditions are very exact stating that you have to take x number of children between whatever ages then it is probably going to be a waste of time entering. Quite a few comps I've entered in the past though haven't been very specific at all though.

    I suppose if they're not specific then they can't really argue with you! I'd like to win one to have the chance to find out lol
