There seems to be very little in the way of flights yet available for purchase post 25th March summer timetable change for LGW Short Haul .. So I don't think the offer is that useful for its final month .. but probably some good off season deals otherwise

Not had a proper look yet or tried booking but are there blackout dates eg school holidays? That would be the only use of it for me - looking at flights 21/22 December and returns just after NYE but sort of assuming that won’t be eligible
shame the max saving is only £100 PP!
actually £100 PP, or per booking?
and Will it work on a flights & hotel booking?

Not sure on the blackout dates
Seems to be per passenger .. you can save more with more pax on the booking
I don't think so ( as BA Holidays has a different payment process and doesn't normally allow any part payment options I don't think )

And it is very well thought through to only allow it on Gatwick bookings over the winter. And FWIW to not allow people to combine vouchers with part paying with Avios.

I think it's a smart move - not perhaps for all those around here, but the occasional Blue traveller with a few thousand Avios and no idea how to use them wisely - I bet this would get them looking and booking if the dates work!
