This brings our party total to more than the no of tickets on offer, if we bid for two holidays same date, same airport and obviously same destination

It would be a wast of time winning two holidays to, for example, Majorca if we were placed at opposite ends of the Island

Another thought - looking at Thomson on line there don't seem to be a lot of 2T rated properties. Does this mean that they may upgrade you or put you in a non featured property?
Thanks for your help,
