    Still trying to get a priority code from them. We book every year....:(
    Tried to cantact them twice, praying for a reply!! :A

    We had to email to get one also. It took 2 or 3 days. We emailed them first and they told us to fill in the contact form: (ukholidaysinthesun/FAQ/priority application enquiry/I haven't received a priority form/contact us), in the 'type of query' section you choose 'previous bookers mailer not received'

    Good Luck, I'm sure you'll get one.

    Can someone please explain the priority codes.
    Does booking online gives you first choice of dates/venues on a first come first serve basis? Or does it just give you a better chance than first time booker/postal booker?
    I am thinking of doing this offer but I will be a first time booker.

    if you have an online code as soon as the booking online is open you are able to go in and do a search for your dates and camps it will only allow you to book what is available so in effect if your dates and camp match it will allow you to book there and then and saves you having to send off any vouchers in the post.

    It will also give you a better chance next time of getting another priority code in order to do the same next time. Have you already got an online priority code then as you need one to be able to do the above.

    If you have booked before then you will (should) receive a priority booking form/number through the post to book online. Not sure if you can book online if it's your first time or can only be a postal booker. With the daily mail you don't need a priority number. I need to book two holidays this year so will try with the mail next week, they don't have a limit on how many holiday you book.

    Which date and site are you looking at? I might be doing it wrong (I've got a migraine coming on) but I only got it to be around £15 cheaper in the feb half term.

    The sale is only on this weekend, so it's worth a look - especially if you don't have a priority code.

    Thank you for this I have just got a great price for Oct half term deluxe with DBB. Just need to compare with Sun self catering price.

    Can anyone help with the basic cost for 3 at Butlins - I know we pay for 4?
