With summer here, many Brits are looking for ways to cut the cost of their next holiday. While most travellers search for deals online, a “hidden” perk could unlock significant savings on TUI bookings.
Through TUI’s latest scheme, holidaymakers may be able to save up to £200 on their trip. However, this is only available for eligible individuals. Here’s how the so-called ‘hidden loophole’ works and who can take advantage of it.
A spokesperson for the airline shared: “To make that break easier, Health Service Discounts has partnered with TUI to provide healthcare professionals with a ‘Holidays for Heroes’ access code for up to an extra £100 off.
“Even better, this exclusive NHS discount can be stacked on top of all TUI & First Choice package holiday deals, allowing key workers to claim TUI’s current deals plus their extra NHS discount on top.”
Once you have received your code, simply enter it at step two of the TUI checkout process when booking your holiday. Your discount will then be applied, allowing you to enjoy great savings on your next holiday with TUI.
Insider tips for non-healthcare professionals
TUI insiders have disclosed that the travel operator’s dedicated ‘Cheap Flights’ page is where heavily discounted flights are listed, as previously shared by the Express.
Chris Logan, TUI UK’s Commercial Director, explained: “If you’ve got a bit of flexibility, this is one of the easiest ways to find a great-value getaway.
“It’s not something everyone knows about, but checking our flights page regularly can uncover some genuinely low fares, especially closer to departure as we look to fill remaining seats.”
“We’re talking everything from quick European breaks to long-haul trips across the Caribbean, Mexico and Thailand. Because TUI Airways flies from 22 airports across the UK, it makes it easy to pick a date, pack a bag and fly from your closest regional airport.”
The most budget-friendly fares from £30 are typically available outside school holiday periods, such as departures in June or early July. That said, if you’re tied to term-time travel, there’s still a chance of securing more reasonably priced flights and potentially trimming the overall cost of your holiday during the busier periods.
However, the TUI hack isn’t the only way to uncover tempting travel deals. Skyscanner provides an ‘anywhere’ feature that lets you choose your dates and subsequently reveals all the cheapest flight options available during that period; discover more here.
