£673 A Night…

[Hylander]

Anyone doing a discount for anyone holding a Bus Pass.      We could all do with a discount,   that OP just shows Greed.   I hope no one takes up the offer.

Hoseasons, Barnes Brinkcraft and Herbert Woods all give 10% off with the 'Blue Light Discount' scheme for emergency workers, I suspect the other yards probably do as well?

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

Yep called herbert woods, photo proof emailed over discount applied, simples. Should cover the service charge at the new Inn, wink wink...

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.

Are last minute discounts a thing anymore?

Not currently on the Broads. Any cancellations mostly resell in a matter of hours, so there's no need for them to discount.

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 .

I wonder whether ex-blue light workers also get the discount.

When I got my blue light card it came via my office and then I had to install the app.

We got the Herbert Woods discount code via the Blue Light Card app

Blue light card also gets you a small discount at Pedro’s in Acle.

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!

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
