CUNARD - Defence Force Benefit - OBC

[MicCanberra]

Thanks Uncle Les apparently prices have gone up on mine.

 

It seems that many who are doing the London to Sydney are staying in for my cruise to get Hobart in too.

 

Shame for you but then you will get to hear all about their cruise experience as a reward.:p

[GUT2407]

Possibly more to do with Teachers only being able to cruise in peak times. But then that can apply to many professions.

 

We're lucky that because SHE is at a private school, we can usually manage to squeeze a cruise in early December before peak prices kick in.

[mrs and mrs]

Well done, any OBC is good to have.

 

Haven't got it yet,it mentions Honourable Discharge.

I gulped hard, now where's that old typewriter, or fine point black pen.:eek::eek:

 

Never had an OBC rather exciting,

Not OBC in USA to Teachers, police, firies, but special discounts from many cruise lines via the big T/A's.

Actually, slightly less, but probably climbed the ladder quicker, less than two years to assistant principal.

Plus the home distilled VODKA.

Be more potatoes drunk than eaten I reckon.

 

But an interesting side-note,is at Chernobyl,is inhabited by Babushkas and a few remaining husbands.

You can even do tours,of Chernobyl,apparently quite a little tourist industry happening there.

You do have to be careful that you don't trip over the 2 headed chickens.

Heres one,you cant get past them,eyes everywhere.

Chernobyl's actually Ukraine. Either way, still a bit out of the way, especially for cruisers.

Have been to Russia, both sides am slightly interested in India (some parts anyway) but would happily leave the rest.

OK here's the GIG.

 

Have just made 2 phone calls to Princess, yes they offer to current/ex military personal these benefits.

6 nights or less $50

7-13 $100

14 nights or longer $250.

 

Make sure they don't, send you to the Military Benefits Program in your cruise personaliser,as all you will get is U.K,U.S.A and Canadain,applications.

 

You have to explain that you are AUS/NZ and they will send you a e-mail, with application form(pdf)

Fill out, scan with record,e-mail back and should be approved in six days.

Once done you will never have to do again.:):)

Up to 2 OBC's per/bkng

 

Hi all,

 

First of all I do realize this thread is from last year, but I just wanted to find out if anyone has had the following problem. I am originally from the US and moved to Australia 14 years ago and am now a dual citizen of both countries; as well as an ex-US Navy gal of twelve years. I am planning on a cruise with RCI and have been told by RCL that they only give the military discounts to US residents. I emailed RCL Australia and RCL US, who referred it back to Australia and they keep saying no military discounts; whereas I keep telling them I am NOT asking about discounts, but about OBC. I thought those were two different things! What do you guys think?

Hi Barbara,

I think what is being discussed here are the Carnival Corp owned lines such as Cunard, Princess, HAL etc.

 

I don't know if RCL have military OBC .

[alibabacruisers]

Thanks for your response

[alibabacruisers]

Just thought I would let you know the response I got from RCI Australia twice (even though I asked the main RCI office). RCI does not give military OBC or discount.
