Casino Offer- no vacation time

[STREETKING]

I recently started receiving these casino offers and we're currently booked on one for a 10 day on the Crown Feb 25. I just received another offer on the Crown for a 10 day Caribean cruise with a balcony for $ 399,if I only had more time off! Hopefully, the offers keep coming after I retire in 7 months.

I keep telling myself that I'm not going to book another cruise and wait for one of these.  I did do one in June.  But, for some reason I keep booking.  Yep, gotta retire.

I just received that offer yesterday, did you get one also. I wonder how many get these offers $39 a day is hard to believe. I wonder if they have these offers available on the 28 day Hawaii cruises?

I did.  They seem to usually be 7 day caribbean.  Which is fine but lately I find 7 days to be too short!  The one I had in June was ridiculously cheap.  I forget how much it was for an interior but I got a balcony for $225 pp, then took an upsell to a mini and got that for $384 pp.  Then on the last night of the cruise, we won enough in the casino to walk off the ship with a bill for $72.

On the last day of my cruise a few weeks ago I got an note in my mailbox for a 10 day cruise at $299 plus $1000 in casino credits.  I guess when you gamble and win a lot on the ship they want you back to get their money back.

Did you take it, was it for a specific cruise or could you pick your own itinerary?

There were a few dates but unfortunately I won't have enough vacation time built up to use it.

I came so close to booking a last-minute solo trip with a great casino rate yesterday.

I have 3 complimentary cruises booked in December and January, two 7 days and one 10. Luckily, I was able to book two b2b in January and my PTO reloads in Jan.

All I do is ask, "Is there a Casino rate with this cruise" I've never received an email or mailer offer for the rate. Just booked a Oct. 2020 cruise yesterday and asked the question and right of the bat it saved me more than $350 dollars and I will be watching for more drops in price between now and then.

[suekel]

Yeah, 2 different things.  I get the casino rate when I book, saved $300 pp on my November 2020, even more on my upcoming January sailing.  The mailers are for specific cruises that are undersold and they offer you a really cheap rate to try to fill the cabins.  Are you signed up for special offers on their website?

We just booked a 17 night Panama Canal Cruise with HAL on a casino discount.  $399 p/p (inside cabin not including taxes)
