kangforpres Posted February 10, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2022 21 day Panama canal from FLL to Vancouver on the Nordam, departing 04-24-22. Free OV room and entry into all the onboard Casino tournaments. Cruise stops in Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Honduras on the Pacific side. Can't go already have an RCI Casino offer that leaves Vancouver on 05-08-22. -Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laminator Posted February 10, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I received that offer today also. A free Neptune Suite. On Monday I received a free NS offer with a significant amount of casino cash on the following sailings.

rodndonna Posted February 10, 2022 #3 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Wow - I wonder if we will receive these? We are small players but did get the Alaska offer that came out last month which we have booked for June. Would love to book another.

We JUST got this 21 day PC one yesterday, but for an Inside. Still a great deal, as you can pay to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbiSox Posted February 10, 2022 #6 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Are the casino offers delivered in the regular mail or online? I haven't received an offer of any kind for a very long time. I don't know who to contact to get back on their mailing lists. Thanks for your help.

It was for the Panama Canal cruise with a free inside cabin as others have stated. They are having some other promotions on this cruise as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Nieuw Statendam we didn't have to show it but my Daughter and her DH just sailed Rotterdam and they had to Show it in order to get the Free Play/Drinks. 🤷♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochelle_s Posted February 16, 2022 #11 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) highscar I just typed ‘Game Edition’ in my email search bar and the cruise offer you are looking for is the only one that came up.

daisy-mae Posted February 17, 2022 #13 Share Posted February 17, 2022 We have received casino offers by mail in the past, but the most recent is the first one that caught my eye. I did a quick search on my Mariner account and I see a private offer price of $249.75 CDN for an obstructed view outside stateroom (Alaska) Since the Casino offer is for a free stateroom, am I to understand that I would not pay $249.75 x 2, but only the fees and taxes, plus $260 CDN x 2? I'm waiting for a call back from our cruise consultant but thought I would ask here. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I cannot say for certain, my educated guess is that the $249.75 CDN is the base fare and you get $200 US dollars in OBC (per person for both of these). Thats how our US deals work - you get a free cabin but have to pay $200 pp for it, which you get back in OBC the same $200 pp. I think they do this to be certain you have some investment in the cruise (it is non-refundable), so that if you cancel you lose the $200 pp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked a 'free' room a couple of weeks ago. As Canadians, we paid $250CDN each and was told we then have $200USD each for on board credit.

"Trying" to squeeze another one in but the timing is hard even though we are retired. So many great deals in 2022, but with 3 booked, a move, and a pooch to kennel, we seem to be having a hard time booking another (but never say never!).

travelnap Posted February 17, 2022 #18 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I also got the new offer today with the Asian and other itineraries and this was for a free ocean view room, along with free drinks in the casino. I have never had to show the email in the casino for any previous Casino bookings I have taken, so that may be something new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochelle_s Posted February 17, 2022 #19 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I have only been on one casino cruise with HAL but I have two more booked. I could be wrong but I believe everyone who books a casino offer gets drinks in the casino while playing. My understanding is that bringing the offer is good for making sure you get any free play that might be offered. I am taking copies of my offers with me for the Statendam. You might also need the copy to get the ‘deposit’ money credited back in the casino if that is how that particular promotion is set up. Apparently there are differences. On my one casino booking on the Eurodam the ‘deposit’ was just set up as OBC on my shipboard account as was different from the ‘free play’ I was also offered which was loaded to my card in the casino.

Laminator Posted February 18, 2022 #20 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Here is a list of the sailings offered o the latest offer sent today.

rochelle_s Posted February 18, 2022 #21 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Does Holland America give your personal information out to other companies? I got the new offer email today. Just for the heck of it I looked at an outside website to view some of the itineraries. I will attach a photo of how the pricing appeared to me. I forwarded this to my mother, who would have the time to travel and she does not see the Mariner Society pricing. How does this outside company (not HAL) know to offer me this? Even though it is not the exact offer I received from HAL ( a Signature Suite, free play and drinks package)., it is very suspicious that that is how it appears for me and not my mother. This company does have my email address as that is necessary in order to look at their website but I have never booked a cruise with them on any cruise line. Anyone else experienced this?

Rochelle If you book a casino event you get free drinks in the casino. If it is simply a casino offer you must qualify to get free drinks in the casino. The offer clearly states that the email offer must be presented to the casino cashier. Most of the time the cage is aware of your offer but sometimes the ball is dropped so it is best to have the email offer with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
