Many thanks for your suggestion. Respectfully, I think I will pass on asking for a change in the title along those lines.

Shame CE isn't included. Thinking of perhaps taking our 7yr old to Billund in oct half term. Is there anything to do in Billund besides legoland? Wondering if 3 nights is too much/little?

Anyone tried booking one yet? Now that the Edinburgh flights have mysteriously re-appeared, I had a look but seem to get charged. Example:

28/7 EDI-LHR BA1459
30/7 LHR-EDI BA1458

1x adult and 2x children comes in at 138.96 for the adult and 225.92 for the kids. And, yes, it is a shame that it doesn't apply in CE but they were never going to be that good! I wonder if these fares may get POUGs?

Also - the conditions seem to suggest that one can change at Heathrow for Billund on these fares. Unexpectedly generous - words I never thought I'd be saying about BA ever again!

See post 1, unfortunately there is a blackout period for EDI in July.

I certainly get a BHD-LHR-BLL to work, and as noted in post one it appears a connection between any of the included domestic destinations is included - so BHD-LHR-LBA also works.

It's a special offer. Many such offers exist. Some people can take advantage of these and some can't.

Ah, sorry - didn't notice that. That is quite unfortunate; you might have thought that they'd blackout August instead!

Lego House opens in late September

I suspect 3 nights is too long. We did one night a few years ago and had time in Legoland on both days. I'd probably do a second night now to have a separate day for Lego House.

it doesn't seem to be for children 12 and under , but for under 12 only. If selecting 12-15 for the 2nd passenger, the passenger is charged for

Great offer - just booked LHR - BLL for October half term. Two adults and two children for 273 return! Also booked LEGOLAND for 3 nights and 2 day passes.... Tomorrow I'll be booking LHR - BHD for 1 adult and 2 children (even better deal ;-))

not specific to this offer but a friend was planning on travelling LHR-EDI in August for festival. 2 adults 1x 6 year old and 1 (will be) 22 months. I suggested booking 22 months as child and having own seat as he is a big boy so they would be more comfortable....does anyone know whether they can just book 2 adults and 2 children online or does an infant travelling as a child need to be done on the phone, and would they still get the child "price"? (infant would be 13.26 with no seat and child would be 0 with a seat!) - thanks
