    HOWEVER
    Many of us have booked a weeks holiday online by booking two back to back holidays
    It is a gamble though as once one holiday is booked there's no guarantee that the second would still be available
    Worth risking it if you'd be happy with a 3 or 4 night holiday if it does wrong
    Book the days you'd prefer first then try to book the other

    To add to this very useful post, the way I do it personally is find the 4 night break I want, and make sure there is availability for the weekend before AND the weekend after. Then book the 4 night before the 3 night. This way, if for some reason the preferred weekend isn't available then I can book the other to make the 7 night. (I can be more flexible with which weekend personally). I have also been known to then go back and book the other weekend too, making a 10 night break which worked well when travelling a considerable distance.

    The other tip would be to use multiple devices and browsers so thas's you can do the second booking very quickly after the first.

    Post to following as desperate for a weekend away this year following an awful year last year. Thank you all in advance for the codes. Shame I won't receive a priority code as haven't booked for a few years and it'll go to my ex if we did get one :(

    Thank you Essex boy and bazzy b! Both super helpful! :)


    When you check availability, do you check directly on the providers site (so Parkdean/Haven etc), OR, does it become available on the 950club site once the tokens start to be issued?

    When the booking office is open they'll be a link showing up to date availability
    It won't show the sites per date but will show the area available giving you a clue if your site could be booked

    Ignore any availability on the provider's own sites by the way as they will only give a certain allocation for Sun holidays and may not make all dates available for the promotion even if they do have plenty of availability directly.

    Had my priority code in the post today. They’ve given me 2 options.
    1 is using the code variety like previous years. The other is using the app which we had to use last year. Is there any benefit from using either option? I prefer to use the code words personally
  • Bonus code word in the post today: AHOY
    Allows codeword booking from Sunday 13th Jan.

    Thanks, great news, I haven't got mine through post or email yet
    Only benefit of using Sun Savers now is the Sun Saver codes towards your £5 plus no need to enter Codewords
    I'll edit the first post with this new information
