We've actually just recently booked with Herbert Woods taking advantage of the 10% multi-week discount, in addition to the Blue Light Card 10% discount. All in all, almost £200 off the holiday which I thought was a good deal! £998 for 11 nights in October. Same here we got 15% off our multiweek so 2 weeks in Oct 18th plus our 2nd holiday with rico's this year and a further 20% off and on board commander so a bonus has it will keep my youngest safe with his disabilities oneway out passed me on the flybridge keep downstairs locked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 It's good to see there is still a discount for blue light workers. Hoseasons used to offer similar affinity discounts for other categories as well. Last year I managed to get one, plus 5% early booking discount, plus 5% loyal discount. The only discount I could find for next year was a loyalty one, not even an early booking discount. Take this lack of discounts, a couple of years inflation, a change to all inclusive pricing and we are looking at a 25% price increase for next year and that's before having to go into a higher price period to avoid Easter and get suitable tides. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any cancellations mostly resell in a matter of hours, so there's no need for them to discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CambridgeCabby Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Living in Cambridge it is commonplace to see signs everywhere offering up to 50% discount for students , the trouble I have with this is that if they are offering such substantial discounts for the students then the shortfall has to be met by others paying inflated full prices ; I make it a mission to avoid restaurantes/cafes/ and stores offering such large student discounts and choose to spend my monies elsewhere . 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I wonder whether ex-blue light workers also get the discount. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got my blue light card it came via my office and then I had to install the app. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
750XL Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 We got the Herbert Woods discount code via the Blue Light Card app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Blue light card also gets you a small discount at Pedro’s in Acle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanessan Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I notice from fb that Pacific Sky is available (due to a cancellation) for one week from 6 August for £925 + £75 diesel. That sounds like a bargain to me bearing in mind some of the prices being quoted here. Bet it won’t be available for long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 We had Princess in late June all in about a grand and we’ve got Star in September for £1100 Pacific prices are always very reasonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
