    I know people want to swap tickets but according to the forum rules this isn't allowed

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/site/forum-faqs#giving
    Why can't I give something to/buy something from someone on the forum?
    The safety of our forum users is paramount and for this reason we can't allow anyone to exchange their personal details either on the open forum or via PM, however honourable the intention.

    This means we don't allow selling/trading/exchanging/swapping or giving as gifts, nor links to your ebay auctions, or other forms of advertising.

    OK, I booked one of AT hotels last week (took the default booking option as it was the cheapest at the time)- no idea there was any promotion on with the Sun newspaper (don't read it). Nothing in my booking conditions about the Sun newspaper.

    There is now a section in the T&Cs regarding "50% discount vouchers - again nothing about the Sun newspaper, putting 2+2 together this is what I have booked & I must now have a voucher to secure my booking .

    I wasn't even aware I was booking a newspaper promotion, just taking the price offered on the website, it wasn't promoted as anything special - the further information just said it included breakfast :(

    Can't find any information on how to get hold of one of these discount vouchers - can anyone help please?


    If its the slip you get with the tickets then i have a spare one you can have. just PM me your address and ill pop it in the post.

    Yes you're right, there's no discount for children this time :( But if there's additional people and another offer (2 for 1 for example) - there's nothing to stop them going to the till to pay, while the people with the Sun tickets go straight to the gate.

    That's what I'll probably end up doing - sending my partner and eldest daughter in with the free tickets, then using some other offer for me and the younger two.

    Yeah last time we went i had 2 spare tickets for same date and gave one each to my friends and there partners just went and paid at the kiosk with the buy one get one free.
