Prize description
The convenience of flying directly into regional airports has proved a great attraction for Thomsonfly.com customers, making popping over to do some Christmas shopping and maybe catching a Christmas show or pantomime even easier.
On arrival at Coventry airport, the winners will be transferred, by taxi, to the luxurious Ramada Hotel just 15 minutes away from the airport. Located in a 17 storey landmark building in the heart of Coventry, the contemporary Art Deco style development offers welcoming and comfortable rooms, a fitness suite and an informal Mediterranean style restaurant and bar, featuring a full ‘theatre kitchen’.
The winners will also be given two BritRail Guest Passes and two matching passes for their UK-resident friends. BritRail Passes enable the holder to travel first class to and from any national railway station in the UK rail network, meaning you and your friends can take the train up to Birmingham, down to London (only one hour away) or wherever takes your fancy while you are there.
Thomsonfly.com also flies into Bournemouth and Doncaster and, from next summer also to Manchester and Cardiff. See www.thomsonfly.com
