To say a big thank-you to all the UK Emergency Services and Ministry of Defence employees who have helped to make this summer’s festivities run smoothly, Virgin Holidays is doubling the discount it normally provides them with.

All employees of the Police, NHS, Fire & Rescue, Coastguard, Mountain Rescue and the Ministry of Defence can take advantage of 10% discount from 8th - 13th August and book a Virgin Holidays break or Virgin Holidays Cruises getaway of their choice.

The double discount is available on all holidays departing between 1st September 2012 and 28th February 2013 and all Virgin Holidays Cruises over £1,000pp.
