Yes, but you have to book through K-Mart. (You probably won't get that reference in Wales, sorry, just a dumb joke.) What's a bluelight discount?

gavvy Posted June 13, 2023 #4 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Blue light is a UK discount scheme for first responders. I know they were offering a discount over the phone from the UK line, but this was just after Covid. Maybe give them a ring and see if it's still offered? I have heard as the discount is not combinable with others, it's not always the cheapest offer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sowhat Posted June 13, 2023 #5 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Blue light discount is a discount for emergency workers, ie health care workers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud_Collector Posted June 13, 2023 #6 Share Posted June 13, 2023 It's 10% off but book direct. For our Aug 2023 cruise we saved over £300 on top of kicker and CAS Discount but lost 100 dollar obc. So still a good saving on a pricey cruise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobblehat71 Posted June 14, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Thanks for all the replies. Yes , I can confirm its 10% off . Can't combine it with any other deals or Vouchers (Tesco clubcard etc) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeil7 Posted June 14, 2023 #8 Share Posted June 14, 2023 That’s funny. FYI, here in the States there was a general goods stores (clothing, home goods, etc) that would have specials on products that would throw on a cart and push to the front of the store. The cart had a pole with a blue light mounted on top - thus “blue light special”. As I recall (I was very young at its heyday), it was the junk that they could not sell any other way. thanks for the trip down memory lane and for serving your community Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the USA we'd refer to them as a discount department store, and those specials drew customers with an urgency, since the sale price was over when the light went out. At their peak, they had close to 2,500 stores world wide while today there are only 9 left, of which 3 are in the USA. In their struggle to remain viable, they tried many things, but I don't remember them ever selling Royal Caribbean Cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
