Yookster,
Please let your travel agent know that he/she can also book directly with Couples Resorts and offer you the military discount.

Is the discount available for Vets or is for those serving us most wonderfully?

Unfortunately I talked to my TA and she informed me that if you book a package (chartered flight) you cannot get this!! Bummer!!!
So actually, it does not apply to Vets that didn't retire from service, is that correct?
Eileen
Did anyone find out how much the discount is???
jjprescott,
The discount is 10%
Hi my husband is Active duty so we are Military too! We got a deal with our ITT office and they even said you can pay with your Military Star card for the whole trip plus Airfare if we wanted to. Couples Resort will give you a Discount too if you call and tell them your MilitaryWe go in Oct. and it will be our first time!
Great MarineWife1122!Which resort are you going to? I''m a "Marine wife" too. We will be there October/Novemeber. We normally go the middle of October but this year my dad and his fiance are coming with us (their first time) so we will be there Oct 28th- Nov 7th. Cant wait.!! My husband will be just coming back for his 2 week r&r from Afghanistan so it will be a really special trip. Unfortunetly he has to go back after the trip but only for a couple more months. You will love Couples Resort, its a really special place.
We have been four times and we get our tickets from the base travel agent they get good deals. The couples Negril we think is the best
Just booked CSA with the "Book Early 2012" rates--which are amazing BTW--and the 10% discount was added on top of it. Thank you to Couples for honoring the US military personnel.
Hello!!
Well I am glad to see we are appreciated by Couples! I'm so happy I'm sitting here right now reading this straight from Afghanistan and I will be getting some love when I go to Couples on R&R. Yookster, I noticed your husband will be coming home for R&R for 2 weeks and you will have had (or going to) be staying during that time at Couples? no way! Me too!!! I'll be coming to Couples for almost a week long "honeymoon" stay with my wife during my R&R and I am so glad we get the love here as well, Randy, My full payment is today (7th Sept) and I will be at Couples on 23 October, on reading what you posted, I'm still good for the 10% since it is within the 46 allotted day period?
Also, I don't get great connection for phones out here... could there perhaps be another way I can reach you guys (email, chat..) Please let me know Randymon!!!
Thanks!
