debman17 Posted October 15, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I was recently on Carnival Magic and played Deal or No Deal. Was lots of fun! What other carnival ships is this on? I'm sailing on Mardi Gras next week and I see they don't have it, instead they have Family Fued. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwcruiselover Posted October 15, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) I was on the Miracle in August, and Deal or No Deal was lots of fun. I hope they expand it to other ships. Edited October 15, 2021 by nwcruiselover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Cruiser Posted October 15, 2021 #7 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) I'm guessing they will have it on all ships soon. Doesn't take a lot to put together and like bingo, it's a huge money maker for Carnival. On our recent cruise we went to just watch. The cards were selling for $25 for one and $40 for two. Looking around the theater it looked like they sold several hundred cards. There were two contestants on the stage. The first won less than $1. The second contestant won around $100. Others in the audience won about $200-300 combined. Most of those were things like bingo packages where it basically costs Carnival nothing extra. They also scheduled no other real entertainment that night (no comedy, stage shows, or main band) so there was really nothing else to do. Carnival knows what they are doing in those. Bingo and the new Deal or No Deal are money making ventures for Carnival. Edited October 15, 2021 by Lee Cruiser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j1d1 Posted October 17, 2021 #10 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Just off Horizon yesterday. Deal or No Deal was scheduled but cancelled last minute due to some unspecified technical problem. They had already sold the cards and had to refund the money. I only showed up to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPTexas Posted October 17, 2021 #11 Share Posted October 17, 2021 We were on the Breeze out of Galveston in late September and enjoyed watching it. We missed the opportunity to buy the game cards (which evidently are sold earlier in the day), but had fun watching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMKTDQT810 Posted October 18, 2021 #12 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Just curious since I never watched it on TV. How did this game work on the ship and what are the cards that were selling for $25 for one and $40 for two for? Was it a number and everyone that had that number won what was matched up for that number on the screen? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaz Posted October 18, 2021 #13 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I'm curious as to how the audience members win also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the person on stage selects a case # to open, the audience also opens (peels back) that same number on their card. Prizes are based on how many matches you get. On the Vista in July, the prizes were money, bingo cards, wifi pkgs, drink pkgs, etc There is a serial number at the bottom of ea card, that is how the contestant that gets to go on stage is selected.

Rare BoozinCroozin Posted October 18, 2021 #15 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Wow, I was thinking of going, but having to pay that much for a chance is nowhere near worth my money nor time. One heck of a money maker though. I'd be better off just dropping $40 on Red at the roulette wheel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierun Posted October 21, 2021 #16 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I’m about to sail on Celebrity Apex and the Deal or No Deal cards are $25 for 1 and $32 for 3. Top prizes are a free cruise and $5,000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel Bear Posted October 21, 2021 #17 Share Posted October 21, 2021 We did it on the pride week of 10.3. First time offered. Our cards were 40.00 for 2. We won 2 bingo free play..sheet of 3 cards for each game in the session attended. Also won 30.00 casino cash which on the pride they redeem in cash at the attendent desk. It was a lot of fun and hope they have it on the legend on our 12.5 sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
