How the calculator works: an example

Example: you're booking a two-night hotel break for two direct with Macdonald Hotels for £299.00, and you have a 10% off code. If a 20% travel sale is on and the code also works on sale bookings, the sale takes off £59.80 and the code a further £23.92, so the booking drops to £215.28: a saving of £83.72. Press “Fill in the example” to see it worked out, or put in your own booking, sale and code. Whether a code works on sale bookings depends on its terms.
