    it doesn't just book it you get to confirm first.
    I am the same although we are flexible we have one date and one park we have our hearts on for my sons birthday! I will be gutted if we cant get it. but we can go to other parks. (I suppose) lol


    if it doesn't come up mix it up ( keeping top date as best one) I once booked one year, and I out my best date and park as number one and it didn't come up and I was rearranging it, and I ended up being able to get my first choice date and my top park... no idea why as its never done it before when I have booked like that.

    I have a priority code from a friend but have done sun holidays before so I hope I can book tonight and not have to wait til saturday!



    So there's one date and one park I can do. Do i HAVE to put in 4 dates and 4 parks? And if so do I get the options of if i wat to proceed if it doesnt come back with my first choice?

    I dont want to put in different park and dates if there's a chance it will just pick one and book it as if i cant get my first choice I can't have the holiday

    God this is so complicated haha! I did post last time not bothered where or when I was going But I dont want to get stuck with a holiday I can't go on

    well - there is a way to try and make the computer through up your preferred date and park BUT it depends if your preference is one of the most popular dates / parks or not!!

    e.g. if you want to go to park X and dates C

    then you need to put in your park and dates as first choice but then put in VERY popular parks and dates for your other choices in the hope they are gone - so all that can be thrown up is your choice....

    people often use the 3 butlins parks as the "popular Parks" and choose peak school holiday dates for the popular dates.....eg 24th August, may 24th,

    and if your choice is one of the Butlins parks on a school holiday date then it might throw it up as available:)

    Does that make sense?

    Yes,you can book the day early,as long as your friend isnt using the priority code himself.

    You do have to put in 4 sites and dates.
    You dont book and pay until you're happy with the choice.
  • Has the last code surfaced yet (7th) ?
    Good luck all in getting what you want

    It could be used as a rough guide but they are different promotions so could have asked for different numbers per site.
  • This all has a "Transfer Deadline Day" feel to it. Feels like we should reporters from around the parks outside with people celebrating once a signing/holiday is made. "Count down to midnight (hopefully earlier) as the Sun £15 holiday booking window opens. Its over to Jim/Essex Boy to take us upto midnight"
