Rare azbirdmom Posted March 28, 2023 #8 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I have not had any problems getting SHOBC applied on any of my casino comped cruises. I do pay to upgrade from the comped category, don't know if that makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlorenceItaly Posted March 28, 2023 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Interesting! This is good to know. HAL does not allow this. It is interesting as they are under the same CCL umbrella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VibeGuy Posted March 28, 2023 #13 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Interesting. The written policy is that full comps are not eligible and I’m aware of people getting denied over it. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just assuming that Princess only comp those who gamble, and therefore lose, a certain amount of money. Otherwise, why would Princess offer a free cruise ? So, how much money do you need to gamble to get a free cruuse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your play could come from winnings which means it is less about lhow much you lose and more about how much you play. You can play conservatively and just put your winnings back in and earn points. Most offers are valid for 3 cruises which could be worth on the high end $18,000 for each offer. (Offer Includes 1 guest) it’s more about Travel Hacking and less about gambling.

I'll just play the fruit machine in my local pub. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamja Posted March 29, 2023 Author #25 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I dont know how many points I get but usually I gamble only 2-3 nights with avg bet of $100-$500 on bj/bacc/craps. Only $5 bets on slots usually. I end up with $750-$2000 freeplay and free balcony or minisuite. Princess plus included for me +1. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
