In Partnership with Wowcher
Ever just want to drop all your responsibilities and head to the airport for an emergency get away but haven’t quite got the funds?
Yep, I reckon we’ve all been there, but if you do fancy a cheeky little mystery holiday there’s a deal on offer which will take you away for just £99.
The only snag is you have no idea where you’ll be heading to, but that’s all part of the excitement, right?
Wowcher’s Mystery Holiday Deal is back, meaning you can grab a little break anywhere from Dublin to Bali, or Ibiza to Thailand, all for just £99.
The deal includes a return flight to somewhere as well as a stay in a hotel, you just won’t know where you’re heading to until shortly before your trip. Destinations include Thailand, Rome, New York, Dubai, Bali, Ibiza and, arguably best of all, Disneyland Paris – I mean, who wouldn’t want to go to any of these places for £99!?
Let’s face it, whether you end up in Ireland or the other side of the world, £99 is a bloody bargain for a getaway, and who doesn’t love the thrill of the unknown?
Most of the trips are little two-to-three day breaks, while the visits to Thailand and Bali are slightly longer at seven days, which makes sense given how long it would take to travel there alone.
Obviously I’d be keeping my fingers crossed for nabbing a bargain trip to Bali or a cosmopolitan visit to New York but it’s a risk I’d definitely be willing to take for the sheer level of mystery and excitement I’d be feeling.
You’d be forgiven for thinking it’s probably too good to be true, but customers have already taken to social media to humble brag about their surprise trips to Dubai.

All of the trips are £99 per person, but they’re based on two people sharing, so you’d need to buy two vouchers. And of course, that means you’ve got the added bonus of sharing your trip with your significant other, your mate, or hell, you could even push the boat out and treat your mum.
Once the deal ends, you’ll all be entered into a draw to find out which destination you’ve got and you’ll then have a solid timeframe to redeem your travel within, obviously this is within selected dates and within certain months.
Luckily, that means you won’t be left on tenterhooks waiting to find out your destination for too long, and you should manage just enough time to squeeze in a bit of shopping to make sure you’ve got all the sun cream/earmuffs/Thai boxing gloves you need, depending on your destination, of course.
The only catch is that the £99 price applies to flights from London airports only, however you can pay between £40pp and £60pp to travel from another UK-based airport.

C’mon Bali, I’m due some good karma coming my way.
