    The catch is you have to book accommodation for 3 nights, the cheapest is £74 per night, so that is £222 for 2 people and then you have to add on the taxes fees and charges for the flights for 2 people.

  • this is very true richard, but my point is if you were going to be booking a break anyway, why not take advantage of free flights and gain some piggy points too..u can always check and see which way works out cheaper/better value to you...ie this way or ur own way and if this way works out cheaper/better value than booking it yourself, bonus..

    It is cheaper to do breaks yourself and choose the hotel you want and not some from a promotions company.
    I think it is highly unlikely that anybody could really benefit from this 'offer'.

    Yep, I remember getting this "offer" a while back. I see it as more of a scam than an offer, to be honest. If you were truly wanting to save money, pay for budget flights, get accommodation at, say, £40 a night, and you'd quite probably find yourself quids in.
