Joyce898 Posted February 18, 2020 #26 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I just booked my first cruise using a cruise certificate provided by total rewards/Caesars corporation as I am diamond I don't intend to gamble on this trip and choose to instead treat it as a low cost vacation. I get these cruise certificate offers from Caesars at least twice a year. Once they know that I didn't gamble, will Caesars stop providing me these offers?

I FYI - You don't need to post the same question in multiple threads No, Caesars does not care if you gamble on the cruise or not. They provide the certificates to their customers as a reward. So you will continue to receive them in the future. If you had booked a comped/discounted cruise thru NCL's Casino At Sea (CAS) dept. and didn't gamble enough on that trip, you would get reduced offers the next time since they counted on your prior casino play to continue.

I get these cruise certificate offers from Caesars at least twice a year. Once they know that I didn't gamble, will Caesars stop providing me these offers? I To directly answer your question, no, if you take a CET cruise offer on NCL, no NCL play is required. There are three ways to get “free” cruises from NCL based on play. 1) CET Diamonds do not receive a free annual voyage; only seven stars do and they are only on select sailings. 2) NCL play can get you free NCL cruise, if you play enough, there are no restrictions barring the sailing isn’t chartered. 3) CET has front end “free cruise” offers which is based on CET previous play. To expand on #3, your CET play, not status, determines if you receive the front end “Come this weekend to Vegas, stay with CET and pickup your free NCL cruise voucher during this time”. At the most basic level, generally speaking, the CET offers you receive are based on your average play from previous past three CET trips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope CET continues to offer me #3 in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesars offers you the free cruise certificate like they offer you any other promotion. Their objective is to get you to come to their casino for the minimum number of nights and gamble. They buy the free cruise certificates from NCL (a sister company) like they buy frying pans and pillows. Just another giveaway to get you to spend much more than the cost of the certificate in their casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll pick up the certificates at Caesars if I want to go cruising instead. The card for the casino bar is a great perk. @BirdTravels, how did you know Caesars just offered me a tuft and needles mattress. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is 100% accurate, however if you are the top status, seven star, you do receive one free cruise on select sailing. This seven star "annual voyage" is on the same sailings as the front end certificate offers. Attached screenshot is of the certificate offer. I can assure anyone the offer code will not work for them but people can have fun trying. Edited February 19, 2020 by NutsAboutGolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that they offer this to me 2x per year. July and January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NutsAboutGolf Posted February 19, 2020 #34 Share Posted February 19, 2020 For 2019 I had four Vegas front end offers and a fifth offer from NorCal CET (I’ve never been/played there). I wouldn’t be surprised if there were more offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce898 Posted February 19, 2020 #35 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Do the cruise ships have Pai Gow poker or baccarat (mini or full table to touch cards)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pai Gow poker with a steep minimum. But at least they have it now. Edited February 19, 2020 by ebay33 Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NutsAboutGolf Posted February 19, 2020 #37 Share Posted February 19, 2020 For Baccarat, they have mini yet it’s often not manned except late at night and I’ve noticed if it’s dead for too long they pull the dealer off to deploy them elsewhere. If it’s not manned, simply ask a pit boss. Also ask about midi, they may or may not offer it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
