My wife won the "free" cruise at the end of Deal or No Deal on our late March Constellation cruise out of Tampa. Sadly, the awarded cruise was for an inside cabin on Infinity during four weeks in late summer. We had to choose the cruise within 72 hours, and upgrading was not allowed. The taxes and port charges, though small ($270 total) were due by the end of the 72 hours. We found that we could buy the same cruise, including taxes and fees for $560 if we hadn't won the free cruise. In the end, we declined the prize and they gave us $25 in casino credit instead. It was fun when the sinner stopped on "Free Cruise", though.
