Circlt Posted January 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Now that we have several more ships in the fleet, can someone rank the casinos by largest square footage, most slots/tables, and any other amenities such as bar/no bar, non-smoking area, etc.? I would love to know since I am getting offers and want to pick a great ship and itinerary. Thanks to anyone willing to accept this challenge!

When I was on the Magic in June, no one was ever in this area. It didn't look fun at all lol. I'm certainly not counting those as part of the casino. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinqt Posted January 19, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2023 We are Platinum and have been cruising over 20 years. For the first time ever I got lost in a ships casino. And it was onboard the Mardi Gras. The Excel class ships are huge! I felt like I was in one of those big Vegas casinos because I kept getting turned around not knowing which direction to go to get out. It will be difficult going on the Pride for our London trip this summer. I was spoiled by that big casino. At least I’ll get to see London though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted January 19, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 19, 2023 If you like that feel of electricity in the air, where the casino feels like an endless playground, you can't go wrong with Mardi Gras. Plus Mardi Gras has a non-smoking and smoking casino (connected but you really don't smell any smoke on the non-smoking side, as they're separated by the bar which is about half non-smoking (I think). Best of all is the view from the table games on the non-smoking side - floor to ceiling clean windows with ocean views! Happy donating! 😁 🏴☠️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted January 19, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Is excel class casinos larger than the dream class? I heard dream class was the largest casino. IIRC Splendor class had a pretty large casino 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of drink servers there also! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hard_eight Posted January 19, 2023 #12 Share Posted January 19, 2023 The casino on the Celebration is immense. Great views on the Non-smoking side (Soooo thankful they finally did this). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted January 19, 2023 #13 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Don't have hard numbers, but yeah, Excel class ships have gigantic casinos. It's not even close. The bars are definitely non smoking now, and it's really noticeable how the non smoking side doesn't smell like smoke at all even though it's all connected. They did a great job with that. I love the deck 4 Annexes on Dream class, the bar service was great and I enjoyed the chill vibe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joebucks Posted January 19, 2023 #15 Share Posted January 19, 2023 The Celebration was quite large. I have never seen such a busy casino in my entire life. 90% of the seats were seemingly filling at all times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was filled with Premier, Ultra, and Elite Casino cruisers. Boat full of degenerates, what can I say🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
