Blue light discount question

[mugwood]

Hello,

just wondering if anyone had success using the blue light discount at all?

If so, was the discount applied there and then?

 

thanks in advance.

Yes, we’ve now booked 4 cruises with the Blue Light card discount of 10%, you have to book directly with Celebrity though.

What is "blue light"?

Only P&O offer Blue Light card. I believe they give you extra OBC when booking directly and select fare.

Yes we use our Blue light card every cruise and always get 10% off - no problem.  As someone else mentioned - you can only do it booking directly and by phone.

We booked our 2023 Canaries sailing on board using Blue Light discount. We are on the Silhouette

UK cruisers will get the 10% off the cruise fare (excluding taxes) if quoting the Blue Light or Military discount card number (I have both). Rarely can the price be beaten from UK or US TAs although I have once by booking on the US site. 
 

Recently booked a Princess cruise and have claimed $100 obc for being ex-military on a weeks cruise.

Hi, the web page quote’s the following for military:

Retired personnel must have served at least 10 years or have been medically retired.

 

Hope this helps.

Can you enter the details online and see what the price is with the discount or do you have to ring celebrity?
