Gambling off the Australia Coast

[shudach]

I am not a First time cruiser, but a first time cruiser off of Australia.  We will be sailing on both the Carnival Splendor and the Celebrity Equinox, and of course we will be doing a little gambling in the slot machines.  Does anyone know if they pay in  US dollars or AU dollars?  And then I guess you would play with the same dollars.

Thanks

"Money

Cash is accepted at all tables and slot machines on cruises departing from North America and Europe. On Australia cruises, all cash transactions are in AUD dollars only. "

thank you VERY much - so helpful.

We are also taking a transpacific cruise on Celebrity, leaving Sydney arriving in Honolulu.  I am thinking that might be US dollars, but again I am not certain.  Thanks

i found my answer - Celebrity ALWAYS pays in US dollars

I’m doing Celebrity round trip Sydney. I’d assumed you needed to use Australian $$ in the slot machines but wondered how they cashed out since it’s worth more in Australian dollars.
