THORPE Park is giving away free tickets to the theme park – but there is a bit of a catch.
The free day passes are being offered to anyone who had their flight cancelled during the travel chaos over the weekend.
Anyone affected by the cancelled flights on May 28 will be able to get a free ticket to Thorpe Park.
The first 100 people who can show they were affected by the cancellations will be given a pass to be used until June 5.
This means showing evidence of the holiday cancellation and ID matching the booking, which can be shown at the Island Ticket Centre.
While you will still have to pay for your travel costs, it means you could save £59 each.
