What is Casino's at Sea

[Happy2bCrews]

What is it, what are the beneifts and how does one sign up for it? Prior to the cruise? What if you are booking from an online TA?

Any and all info would be great. Thanks

[TheYearofMe]

You obtain your CAS card when you sign up for one at the casino on your ship. They offer some great rewards based upon your play. Based on play you will get cash back at the end of your cruise to put towards your bill. When booking your next cruise you can call them up and book directly through them for a discount based upon play. I read here that the discount is roughly 17% off.

 

I always get a great rate when I book through them, but I also play quite a lot while onboard. My next cruise coming up in November was a free cruise due to my play on my previous cruise. I had to pay taxes and fees but it was almost 2000 off the regular fare. I am not sure if you can sign up before your cruise, but you should call them and find out. Their number is 1.877.752.9625

 

Good luck on your next cruise!

Just to add a bit to what Patti has posted, CAS is the "management" of NCL's casino's onboard their ships. Just like most casino's you can sign up for a players card. That gives you benefits of credit towards your OBC depending on how much you play. Also, when signing up, most of the time you will get a coupon book that gives you free play, buy $10.00 in chips and recieve $5.00 extra, etc. It really gives the casino staff a way to get to know you as well.

 

And, as Patti said, once you have been on your first cruise with NCL, CAS will look at your level of play and may make future offers to you depending on how you play. The offers range from free cruises on slot tournament or Texas Hold Em tournament cruises with free entry into the tournament and some pretty big prizes if you win the tournament. You might get an offer for a free inside stateroom, a free balcony room, OV stateroom, suite, etc, it just all depends on your play on your first cruise. If you do cruise again and have booked your cruise though CAS either with a discount or a comp'ed cruise, you will have in your stateroom when you board a VIP card to put with your new players card and the VIP card gets you free drinks in the casino.

 

If you do a search on these boards, you will read some threads where if you call CAS and have a players card to other casino's you might qualify for a discount on your first cruise. That is no longer true with the exception of having a playing history at Harrah's which now either owns CAS or has just partnered with CAS, not for sure.

 

One last thing is you will also, because of the new "partnership" between Harrah's and CAS, be sent promos for Harrah's land based casino's. We just got a VERY nice offer to go to Harrah's in New Orleans.. And I have to say, one of the nicest offers we have ever been given for a land based casino, even back when we used to go to Vegas three or four times a year and spend a TON there.

 

Ok.. so there is one more thing I just thought to put on here.. if you ever have an issue with the casino while you are on an NCL cruise, you might as well save your time and not bother going to the Hotel Director or any other officer of the ship. They literally know nothing, or claim to know nothing, of the casino and it's operations. They will tell you it is a completely seperate deal and you will have to wait until you are back from your cruise and contact CAS landbased customer service. So with that said, if you have an issue with the casino and the casino manager doesn't do anything about it, either just stop your play there or play and go on about your business or keep playing and get over it cause there is no one else on the ship who will help you.

Terry,

 

Have you ever sailed on the Majesty? We're booked on her in June and the CAS representatvie kept telling me over and over that she's not automated and that we need to be aware of that while using the casino. He actually said at one point that getting points on the Majesty is at best "difficult".

 

I knew that prior to booking and I've read posts here where people tell you to make sure that you check in with the casino manager when you start to play and check out when you leave so that they will track your points. I've also seen posts where people said they did okay with points on the Majesty doing this.

 

I'm not all that concerned about getting money taken off my final bill but I would like to make sure that I receive enough points to qualify to book with CAS in the future after this cruise. Just wondering if you've had any experience with the casino on the Majesty, or any other NCL ship that isn't automated.

 

Thanks,

CG

[goldmom]

Not Terry, but maybe I can help. We were on the Dream last fall which also isn't automated. Everyone said that we would have trouble getting points. However, we found no problem getting points and I think even got more points off our bill than we usually do. We also booked thru CAS.

 

Just make sure that the casino staff gets to know you from day one. Make sure you tip them if you get a hand pay. Take the time to chat with them a bit. There were times that I forgot to check in with them and they would ask me how long I'd been playing and just make a note of it. With your points being tracked by a human rather than a machine, there is more room for error, either on the plus side or the negative side. We found the casino staff on the Dream to be very friendly and I think that our attitude to them may have affected our points.

 

We did notice that DH did not receive as many points playing at the tables as I did on the slots. They also note what denomination of machine you're playing. I made them nuts as I have a tendency to jump around to all different machines.

 

I don't think you should have a problem, at least that was my experience, just make sure the staff knows who you are. Good luck and enjoy!

[goldmom]

The only other thing was that we didn't get the drink cards on the Dream (at least I don't think so). We would have to ask the casino staff for a drink and they would send a waiter over. The one time DH just asked the waiter for a soda, he was charged for it. After that we always made sure to ask the casino staff to get a waiter for us. Just a heads up.

I agree with what goldmom said about the Dream and the Majesty. I really wish I undestood why NCL will not spend the money to update those casinos. In the over all picture, it would cost them very little.

[DebbieCruises]

Is it too personal to ask how much play is a lot or a little? I enjoy the slots, but don't play with hundreds. I'm more of a $20 person; although...by the end of a cruise I sometimes feel like I have ended up putting in enough to have bought my own machine! LOL

 

I have noticed that some people play for hours on a machine. Is there a minimum one should expect to play (time or money) in order to sign up for the Casinos at Sea program?

[CruisinMK]

Casino freebees are the most expensive freebees there are. :)

 

I have a surefire way to make money on a slot machine.

 

Own one!

You should always sign up for and use a card to track your play, it can only help you. Plus you usually get a nice little coupon book just for signing up. Don't bother to sign up ahead of time, it doesn't usually work and you have to do it onboard again, plus this way you can get all the coupon books and any "specials" they have for signing up (lottery drawings, etc).

 

Basically, each $138 you run through a slot machine earns you one point. That's a fairly accurate number, and it's doubled for video poker ($276 = one point), a few machines vary, but 95% of the machines I have played on 4 ships have used the $138 number. That's not how much you spend or how much cash you put in it's how much you continuously bet on the machine, betting your own cash and "reinvesting" your winnings. A very general idea of this is an estimated 90% payout, so each time you play $100, you get about $90 back in smaller and larger wins, and you play that down to about $81, then $72, etc. Believe me, it adds up quickly, and I have estimated my average return at about 90% on my cruises. If you earn the minimum of 25 points, you can get some cash back at the end of your cruise (follow their directions). It's generally $1 per point, but gets to slightly better percentages when your points get over 100, 200, 300 etc. There is some discrepancy over what the "threshold" is to earn a discount on your next cruise, some people with only about 30 points have stated they were given a discount, others have stated recently that they were a good bit "over 25 points" and were denied eligibility. Cruise discounts range from 17% discount, a buy-one-get-one, all the way up to a comped cabin for two and more. If I had to estimate, I would say that 250-300 points on a one week cruise will get you comped on your next cruise (7 days or less and no Bermuda usually, sometimes only select sailings depending on your play), 300-350 points an oceanview cabin, 350-400 for a balcony, 450-500++ for a suite or mini. That's a very rough guess, but it's generally within the scope of what we have been offered. For points earned on a single cruise - using points as a gauge for discounts only looks at your last cruise. But using your points toward "cash back" - the actual points can be saved until your next cruise (ask the casino staff to have them transferred from the last ship, it takes a day or two)- I think it there is an 18 month cutoff. Lastly, if you book your cruise through CAS, whether discounted or comped, they have consistantly given you a separate card that provides free drinks in the casino as well. I hope that makes sense.

 

Of course, table player ratings are another animal altogether - subjective and at the pit bosses discretion.

 

Others may have had different experiences, but I only know what we have been offered and I have guesstimated for my own use. I hope this info helps!

Robin.. probably the best explanation of this I have ever read. Great posting.

[DebbieCruises]

Robin, Thank you so much!! I have a much better understanding now. Your explanation was excellent! I appreciate your help! Thanks again! Debbie

[4evrwild]

Robin,

 

I earned 97 points on a 12 night Jewel cruise last spring. At $138 per point does that mean that I put through $13,386???? I must be nuts. I know that I spent about $1,000 of my own money but didn't realize that I put through so much additional winnings. If asked I would have guessed another $800 which is still sick. When home with nothing left.

 

Your explanation is the first one that offers a logical mathamatical formula to compute points to spending. Next week on the Jewel, I'll be trying to figure it out using your formula. If it really takes $138 to earn one point then we slot addicts are the hooked fish and the slots are the lures!!!

 

At least they used to provide free drinks but I guess that's gone by the wayside except for a few who book through CAS.

 

Thanks for your clear thoughts on this topic.

If you use your players card and get to know the casino staff, you will be surprised at the free drinks you might get.

 

And Robin is right on the money (no pun intended) in how it adds up. For our cruise last Nov 07, when we got the win/loss statement for taxes, it showed we had wagered 5 times what we had actually spent out of our own money. And that was with us only winning one $1500.00 jack pot. The only thing is, you can't go backwards in trying to figure up how much you wagered. Every NCL cruise we have been on they had several nights where they offered double or tripple points. So you can't look at it as I had 25 points so I must have wagered X number of dollars, because you may have earned double or tripple points and not even known it.

Yes Ruth, we are the "hooked fish" :D. We usually spend anywhere between $3000 and $5000, which isn't bad for a comped cruise - it's usually just about the cost of the cabin we would have paid for otherwise. Instead I get days and days of casino play and the rare excitement of winning something decent! They're gonna get my money in some way, might as well have more fun while they take it! If you multiply the points we earn, it looks like we are paying for both Garden Villas each trip, but actually it's much less out of pocket. The earning of points is extremely transparent - look at the countdowns on each machine where you put your card in - and BEWARE, the dollar Wheel of Fortunes seems to be almost twice as "expensive" to play for points as most others (at least recently on the Sun).

 

Did you book your Jewel cruise through CAS? With points like that, you should have! Even if you didn't (I have been there, done that), call CAS before you leave and arrange to have your cards waiting with the free drink cards. If per chance they are not in your cabin (been there too), just speak to the casino manager the first night. You should have the cards sometime the next day.

 

Now I just need a gambling buddy to cruise with. I have the time, the cabin, but hubby is too busy earning me money (LOL). I am jonesing for my next cruise, I will need to book one soon or I might just go insane!

Sorry but that won't work. I just tried it for my upcoming cruise. They did offer me the discount but I declined because I could do better elsewhere. (Not much ...but hey!). I asked about the drink card and they said I had to book through them to get it. :(

Ask the casino manager on the ship anyway, it worked for me a couple times when not booked thru CAS.

[mafig]

We were on the Sky in July and accumulated some points. Not a lot, but it was only 4 days. We still have our cards.

 

We have a cruise booked for March, and it is my understanding that our points will still be valid. Should we bring our cards?

 

Will we get a coupon book, or that for "new card signups only.":eek:

Every time you cruise you have to sign up for a new card, but they can transfer any left over points you have from your last cruise to the new card, just be sure and tell them when you sign up for the new cards that you want to transfer your left over points. I believe you will get the coupon book.

I didn't book through CAS. I tried to book my last cruise through them and it wasn't worth it. They quoted $3,998.44 or something close and I booked for $2,788 including insurance. That's the money I throw away in the slots.

 

I will try CAS by phone though before we leave and see if they will provide me with the "drink card." If Jules is still the manager, I'm sure he will remember me.

 

I agree on the "Wheel of Fortune" machines. I watched several people spin a couple of times and hit a good win. I could play all night and not even get more than $25 bonus! Maybe this will be my time to win!!!

 

Thanks Robin,

I will tell you what was sickening.. I don't mind seeing someone hit something nice on a machine.. i figure if not me at least someone is hitting something.. right?? On our last cruise there were three dollar WOF machines. This ONE WOMAN was the only one who I ever saw hit the $1000.00 on the bonus spin. If she sat down at one of the machines, you could bet she was going to hit the $1000.00 on the bonus. One night we saw her hit it twice. No one else ever hit anything on them other than $100.00 or below. Wish the machines had a way to spread the love around a bit more.. LOL.

Oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'd be ready to jump ship! I had a fairly decent machine on the Gem and was playing next to an eighty something year old lady. She yakked and yakked but at least she didn't smoke. She wasn't winning but would move to the other side of me and back again. I hit some nice wins and she asked me to let her know when I was done playing that machine. I had to go to dinner so I told her I was giving it up. Do you know that I could never get on that machine again. She hogged it the whole cruise. Not that it was a big winner if you kept playing you would put it all back but it played a long time on not a lot of money put it. By the end of the cruise, I saw her again and she left the little quarter machine and hit $1,600 by putting in $1 a turn into a two coin dollar machine! Paid for her cruise and I never got my machine back!

 

Ruth ;)

[CruisnGram]

No, sick is when you spend close to $400 on a machine over a span of about 3 hours and when you finally get up and move to the machine next to it, someone sits down where you were and hits the jackpot for $4000 after about 2 spins. :eek:

 

That one taught me a lesson for sure. If I ever give up on a machine I move WAY far away so I don't see if when someone else hits it right after I've walked away. :D

On the same cruise as the lady who kept winning on the WOF, there was this one slot machine.. I can't remember the name of it to save my life but it was fun.. just like you say.. you win a little and spend a little, etc. I got on it one time on the first day.. EVERY time after that when we were in the casino, this same woman was on it. Now I don't mean to be mean.. LOL.. (well.. ok.. maybe I do).. but her hair was HORRIBLE.. lol.. literally like she rolled out of bed and ran to the machine. I am pretty much a slot addict, but her with that hair.. I was like.. ok.. I think I have met someone worse off than me if she couldn't even brush her hair before she came to the casino. I was honestly embarassed for her.

I have two stories for you about this.

 

1. My first trip to Vegas I went by myself and my sister and her husband were flying out later in the day to meet me there. While at the hotel waiting for them I went down into the casino to kill some time and some money and got on a WoF dollar machine. I put $100.00 in it and played a few spins and got down to like $20.00. I was like, "ok.. this machine must be cold.. so I moved over to another bank of machines but on the same row as the WoF. God as my witness, a couple came up and stuck a $20.00 bill in and on their second spin won $40,000.00. I just cashed out of the machine I was on, got up and went back up stairs, sick as could be.. LOL.. Leson learned.

 

2. When my DDP and I first started dating he lived in a town a couple of hours from Dallas. So he would come up on the weekends. One friday night we were about to call it a night and go to bed and I had this great idea of us driving all night to Tunica, MS. I love their casino's there. Well.. we got there.. got a room.. slept a few hours.. then went down to the casino. Ok..at the time , the closest casino's to Dallas were in Shrevesport. So it was not like I got to go to a casino just all the time. To this day, when I am in a casino, I don't want to do anything there I can do here in Dallas.. that includes eating.. LOL. (And to tell you how bad I am, I am a big guy, 300lbs plus). Well.. I am sitting at an Elvis slot machine (which is my favorite slot machine) and playing for hours. Finally my DDP and our friend we asked to go with us, come up behind me and start whinning.. "we are hungry.. we need food.."etc. So Im like.. look.. you guys go eat.. i'm fine. Well. they wouldn't go eat without me. So after them bugging me for like 30 minutes I cashed out of the machine I was on very begrudingly. I JUST HAD A FEELING THAt MACHINE WAS GOING TO PAY OUT.. I swear to you... A woman sat down at the machine almost before I had gotten up from it and on her first spin got tripple diamond, tripple diamond, tripple diamond. The largest jackpot other than the progressive on that machine. Again.. lesson learned. I will leave the machine when I am ready.

 

I have friends that tease me and say if I am on a cruise and the ship goes down, they will know where to look for my body.. LOL

[Fishbait17]

LMAO you guys all sound like me. I have the same kind of luck usually. But I have one that to this day makes me cry.

 

We took my two aunts and uncles to Vegas for their 40th anniversaries a few years back. Now they don't really gamble, and my hubby is one of those guys that "dabbles". So we are gathering for dinner (staying at the Venetian) and while waiting, just standing there, hubby drops $20 into some quarter machine, spin, spin, win - hand pay about $1500. While waiting for his hand pay, he drops another $20 into a dollar machine like 2 away and WHAM, first spin gets $2000. He is known to have luck like that, so I was not surprised - it keeps me playing and keeps my losses manageable. But that's not what got me...

 

On our way back from dinner, hubby walks by the dollar WOF, points one out and says "I Have a feeling about that one". As you can guess, I trust his intuition. So we sit down, the two of us sitting next to each other, we play and play and finally go to bed exhausted about 4am, up about $300-400 each. We were thrilled. On the way upstairs, hubby says "That was fun, that machine is HOT, lets play again tomorrow." I was just thrilled to be UP and that hubby would sit and play with me for so long.

 

Here's where the story ends. Get up very late, and go back to the machines. There is a crowd, a BIG crowd. Some guy hit that same machine for the progressive, over $3 mil IIRC, just minutes before we get up. ARRRGHHHH!

 

That's what keeps me poor lol. Always afraid to get up and leave a machine, and letting the cash flow outward! :D
