Aaaaaaarrggggghhhhh!!!

Why are all the holidays for 2010 showing only three nights (even for the midweek breaks which are clearly listed as four night breaks in the leaflet?). The only thing I can get for the holidays next year (12th) is Bude and that's 300 miles from here:eek: I just can't do a seven hour drive for a three night break - the extra night might just swing it. Have the sun made a mistake on the booking site or are the holidays really three nights?

I was just wondering the same.

Managed to get a midweek break at Butlins, Skeggy next April but it's saying three nights.

Booked it anyway as it's only about an hour from here so it's worth going for 3 nights.

The kids will be made up. They loved it at the end of May and we couldn't afford to go back at full price.

It means taking them out of school (which I don't really like) but needs must.

I've always booked as soon as the site has become available also and same here no problems in the past. However this time no luck and I'm sure in the past the site has only opened the night before it does officially. I thought the official opening was Saturday 11th July which means the site is open 2 days early.

last time as i recall it opened 2 days early as well, it originally was supposed to open on a saturday, but halfway thru they changed it on the website to the friday, and the site opened up on the thursday, Dave

I'm sure that because the Daily Mail, Express, Sun and Star have these promos on, that there's not going to be a good availability. Also UK hols are more popular than ever without the promos.

Also, I booked a Sun holiday online in January and haven't had that yet as it's not until Sept. Many of the autumn breaks would have been booked then. AND people are feeling the pinch so more and more are going for these breaks. I was lucky as I got my first choice and on the date I wanted, but I've just looked on the Haven site and they have no more vacancies for that place and date.

Has anyone with a priority code where the last 3 digits start with a zero had any luck in booking yet?? Mine not working either!!

Passes are free for under 15s at Butlins. There is a £6.95 per night charge and a £9 per person charge for entertainment for over 15s, plus a charge of I think around £10 for linen

Nothing about linen charge in the booklet but I do remember a similar charge last time. Also, Entertainment passes are only free for under 16's on midweek breaks.

Well done to everyone making a killing on Butlins for October half term. We are going to Bognor for the first weekend in October and are saving about £100 on the listed price. Though we usually upgrade to Silver reducing the saving to about £50.
