Code to get 50% off Gatwick Express tickets

I am not sure how long this is valid, but you can get 50%off Gatwick Express tickets by using wp5170. You have to buy singles, it is not good on return tickets. I just saved about 60 US for the 2 of us by using this promotion.

Patrick...
Sorry, I should have made it clear that there were 2 of us and that we were in fact going both ways. I was shocked at the regular price. I was thinking of hitchhiking!!

How do we collect these tickets? It looks like you need to book one at a time since the website said after I put in the code that this is for a minimum of 1 adult and a maximum of 1 adult.

Do we book online and then put in our credit card into the machine when we are ready to board or will they mail the ticket to us in the US?

The authorization code was emailed to me. It said that you just present it on the train. the tickets have been paid for with your crdit card. You do have to book singles, but I was able to book 4 singles in one transaction. the codes were emailed to me...seems as if it works just the way they said.

Ticket pick up is different for Gatwick and Heathrow.

You print out your confirmation number for Gatwick and present that to the conducter ON the train.

For Heathrow you take your confirmation numbers and collect your tickets at the ticket machines.

YOu order each ticket seperately and pay for them with your credit card online. It is smart to have the same card you used to pay with you when using the tickets.

I think the Heathrow code wp7162 has expired. I can't get it to work. It was showing the discount yesterday.
