geogran Posted January 6, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Just wondering how other cruise lines like Holland and Princess compare to NCL casinos/slots? We are planning our first Alaska cruise in Aug 2013 and am curious about the casinos. We will be choosing either Holland Westerdam, Star Princess or NCL Pearl.....and noooooo we won't be choosing based on casino answers I might receive!!! :D :D I like to play slots in the evenings for an hour or two and had good luck on the last night of my NCL Jade Western Mediterranean cruise. I won $1400 on a nickle slot 'Quick Hit' - what a thrill! Thanks for any opinons you might have - all in good humor! I can't wait to experience Glacier Bay - I hear it is the highlight of any Alaskan cruise.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandpaul Posted January 6, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I don't think any cruise lines casinos compare to NCL's. I usually play crap which is a lot better on NCL. Can't speak for the comparison of slot machines but I don't do bad on NCL. There is also an outfit called Slot Play coupons where you get $50 in slot play for $25. This is for NCL ships. Can't hurt any. My son is a good blackjack player and he tells me the higher limit tables on NCL are good. Probably doesn't help much but it's a good idea to ask. Good luck.

krzi Posted January 6, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I prefer NCL they have a better players club and their casino is much like a land based casino. But you are in a floating resort so it will Be different on every ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geogran Posted January 6, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Thanks, Grandpaul, for the info about the slot coupons for NCL - sounds like a good deal and wasn't aware of it. Thanks, KRZI - looks like NCL casinos have a strong following. Happy sailing and good fortunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use them wrong you can lose the money you have on your card. The casino personel can help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
