Linda has been monitoring your posts ;-) Quote:
This is a trial package that Legoland have introduced, they're testing the
water to see whether they get a decent response. An idea for a day like
this would normally be generated by the company itself* and then taken to
Red Letter Days for promotion. Its unlikely that RLD generated the concept
themselves. Therefore there is a possibility that you could get Lego to put
together a specific day.
If we're looking at a corporate rate we'll need to negotiate, they don't
have a fixed discount rate - 20 bookings might generate 10%.* If you can
get an idea of numbers I'll happily go back with my negotiating hat on if
you want.
The price includes a half day in the park as well, plus an additional ticket
to visit at another time.
* Interpertations and guesstimates from Linda who is pretty good with these
things ;-)
I would suggest that we've either gotta pick one of the dates offered and
then go en masse through RLD, or decide on another date and try going
straight to LEGO. Perhaps the former is better, as there are less dates for
us to disagree over, and LEGO might cosider it at least partially successful
if they receive a booking this way...
Just Jono .oO (and Linda too) ;-)
