Cruisin'cockney Posted April 3, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2014 OK, I understand that Bermuda now permits an onboard casino to open after 9pm on ships docked overnight. Has NCL confirmed they intend to do so this summer? I am assuming they won't pass up this revenue generating opportunity despite the need to pay a licence fee to Bermuda.

Neil There has been no official announcement from the Bermuda government of the start date, but I am assuming it will start with the RCI EoS visit on 4/7,8. EoS will be the first cruise ship to visit Bermuda for the start of the cruise ship season. We should know soon. SBtS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBtS But just because RCI does it doesn't mean that NCL will do it as each ship has to pay to allow it~ so we'll need to wait until the first NCL ship goes~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartbda Posted April 3, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I guess if you want to wait for an absolute definitive answer when the first ship NCL sails you can.;) All the cruise lines have been asking for years to have the casinos open so why would NCL decide not to have theirs open?:confused: What Peg013 posted is right on.:) But just because RCI does it doesn't mean that NCL will do it as each ship has to pay to allow it~ so we'll need to wait until the first NCL ship goes~ Considering Kevin Sheehan told them last year if they didn't allow gambling he couldn't guarantee the Breakaway would even go to Bermuda this year, I don't think you have to wonder.

Alliezona09 Posted April 3, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I never said NCL wouldn't open their casino~~ I just meant why wait to see what RCI does when this is the NCL board~ I think we should wait till NCL sails there to see what they do~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirowedoc Posted April 21, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I recieved an email from the Celebrity Blue Chip club and they will be opening their casino's during the approved hours in Bermuda this summer. I am still trying to find out if NCL will though. I have not seen or heard anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
