New Casino Offer on Board

[FlGoodShips]

Just got off Encore and instead of OBC after gambling...was offered a new program. Its called "Casnext". Kinda like cruise next, but issued by casino. Its great. I got 2 $250 certificates to use when booking thru casino at sea for next cruise.

Play mainly slots or table games?  How much do you think you averaged gambling to get this offer?

 

Asking for a friend.  🙂

Did they give you something that shows 'Terms & Conditions'?     

 

The 'rumor' on another forum was that they had to be booked & used within a year.  That would be difficult for those of us who have several cruises already on the books.

Good question-  might be great for someone who doesn't get comped cruises, but not helpful for many of us.

I will be on the Encore in April,,,, And Escape in May,,, so we'll see what they have to say.

Sounds like a great way to get the payers...uh players...back on board.  Now, If they would only put a $1.00/$2.00 TH table on the ship, I'd be All In (where you must use $2.00 bills, see:)

I play slots. Had roughly 5000 pts??? Not sure how they calculate it, but was offered either $400 obc or $500 for certificates. I took the cert...because I could use them for admin fees when booking thru CAS.

They gave me the choice. 1st host did not offer certificates, but overheard someone talking about them, so i went back next morning and spoke to Robert on Encore.

You can use for upgrades, admin fees, excursions...whatever you need extra $500 for.

Thanks for sharing this info!  

I wonder if they limit how many you can use per cruise?  (For CruiseNext you can only use two for balcony and above, etc.)

 

Also, Can you use CasinoNext, PLUS CruiseNext?

Interesting! 

If we can get a combination of CasinoNext plus OBC that could be helpful for those of us who start out the cruise with a nice amount of OBC.

Same as cruise next...only 1 unless balcony, then you can use 2 or book 6 months in advance.

Cannot combine with cruisenext.

Does use in 1 year mean book in next year, or complete cruise in next year?

 

(When we got our one-time Diamond upgrade, they let us book within a year but we could use it on a cruise over a year out.)     Sorry for all the questions!  Thank you for informing us😊

Hmmm... @FlGoodShipsThanks so much for all of this great information. I suppose free money is better than 1/2 price money.

Thank you! We were on the Encore last April and the host team was wonderful.

 

Our last two cruises were on the Prima and I didn't care much for the hosts. I know that they would not put rookies on the new ship, but they sure acted that way.

I really appreciate what you have shared with us!   

 

I'm sure we will all learn more when someone on this board uses those CasinoNext certificates to book their next cruise.
