How to book a free child place
Finding out about our free child places – and how to book – is super easy. These free places apply to new bookings, with one free child place available per two full-paying adults in each selected hotel room, apartment or villa.
Start your search by adding the number of adults and children who’ll be travelling, including how old the children will be on your return date.
Then, select the month you want to go on holiday.
Take a look at our hotels that include free child places, and use the filters to narrow down your choices, like airport, destination and board basis.

Flight
You’ll get a standard flight ticket included with your free child place. All you have to think about is keeping your littles one entertained during the journey.

One child per two full-paying adults can stay for free in selected hotel rooms, apartments and villas. And, of course, they’ll have full use of all the facilities, from pools to entertainment.

FAQs
What’s included with a free child place?
A free child place includes the flight, accommodation, food and drink, and transfers to and from the airport.
Do I qualify for a free child place?
To qualify for a free child place holiday, there must be a minimum of one child travelling with you. There also needs to be at least two full-paying passengers travelling on the same booking. That can be either two adults and one child, or one adult and two children. Just so you know, if there are multiple children on your booking, the free child place will be allocated to the youngest child.
How many free child places are available per booking?
For each holiday, we offer a maximum of one free child place. This goes to the youngest child if there is more than one child travelling. A minimum of two full-paying passengers must also be travelling on the same booking.
Travel with your children at no extra cost
Our free child place offer applies to new bookings only, on selected holidays subject to limited availability. Only one free child place is available in each selected hotel room or selected apartment type or villa with a minimum of two full-paying adults. Other children must pay the full price. Please see www.tuiholidays.ie or the relevant brochure for full booking terms and conditions.
