    You will need to join the existing list of others who have also asked for a priority code, which is here

    Same option.

    Some European parks will also ask for a £100 refundable cleaning/damage waiver deposit. Instead you can opt to pay for an Equipment Damage Waiver guarantee for £15 per booking, but this is non-refundable.

    Under 3's have free entertainment passes at Butlins.
    No idea if the passes are dated at Butlins,I'm at Bognor Butlins for a week starting Monday so could let you know on my return if no-one else can answer.
    At all Haven sites I've been to you just flash the cards when entering the entertainment complex,swimming pool,they've never checked the dates.

    I came back from Bognor a few weeks ago and they didn't issue entertainment passes. You just flash key to chalet/room, same as last year.
