The casino runs the bingo on the princess line. If children are not allowed in the casino they shouldn't be allowed to play bingo. Bingo is a form of gambling. I know the parents pay for the tickets and yell bingo if the child wins. After the lasts few cruises where children were in the bingo lounge I refuse to play anymore. any comments ???

Children were allowed to play????? I find that hard to believe!

Happens on every Princess cruise I've been on. The kids can play the cards but there has to be an adult there to call the bingo and collect the cash. The caller even makes an announcement about it at the start of Bingo.

 

I don't play Bingo on cruise ships because it's very simple to do the math, count the number of players and the card packs they are buying, estimate the total take, and then total up the payouts - you quickly realize that the odds on cruise ship bingo make slot machine odds seem absolutely outstanding!

why do you care if they play? is it because you don't want to lose to a kid? How is it different than losing to any one else?
