I would like to know this too as ours don't expire until June but I will only renew them if I can get a good deal otherwise it won't be worth it for us

Just to let you know... I've phone them this am... they will start your renewal at the end of your current pass... so you can go and buy now and get the new pass started in June....Hope it helps.

My daughter was 4 in September. We went to Chessington in August and she was caught as being dead on the 1 metre high restriction. The guy on the gates said he'd let her in free this time but next time we must pay. So Chessington and I think Thorpe Park are children over 1m but I think Legoland is over 3 year olds. We went to Sealife the other day and that was 0-3s free but over that we had to pay (we got a half price ticket) as haven't got the 4 year old a pass yet as only had enough Tescos vouchers for 3. Am waiting for the sale to buy the 4th.

If they are near the mark, carry them in. We got into Chessington twice and Thrope once last year doing this. Whilst in Throrpe we got one of those come back the next day tickets for about £3 (as we were there for a few days).

We just walked in quick and fast, I handed over the three passes, whilst my OH carried our youngest in.

we did the same with our LO at Warwick Castle, we put her in the pushchair and just walked through the push chair entrance, no one said anything

In theory then if 1 of a family of 4 has a Premium pass then the car parking would be free.....its just a case of doing the calculation to mkae sure its a benefit .

Havent spotted anything on the offer information they are supposed to be announcing today

I may be completely wrong but judging by this it doesn't look as if they are doing it online this year.

On further investigation this is what is on Chessington website.

Shame it doesn't say how long the 50% offer is on for at Chessington - this is the one that is furthest for me to get to!

It does,check the terms it says 15th February.

i'm thinking of doing the same...just buy one premium pass but Merlin was supposed to announce the parking charges today... so far nothing... Just waiting to find out if worth it for me etc...

I think they are doing something similar this year - just not got it sorted out on their websites - if you go to legoland it mentions a 50% sale - then when you click to

https://secure.legoland.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?categoryId=39604&catalogId=23051&storeId=10657&langId=-1

it shows reduced prices (merlin £72 +vat) - but when you press 'select' the prices are not shown as reduced.
Hope that makes sense

Someone mentioned the Brighton Sea Life Centre were running the 50% off too. It may be worth checking the other sea life centres if you are near to one.

Going to ring Birmingham tomorrow and check out Warwick Castle too.
