wayne_trisha Posted November 15, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I am planning my first cruise Not unless you wager LOTS of money and get noticed. Definitely not like a land based casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted November 15, 2008 #5 Share Posted November 15, 2008 They have no incentive to try and keep you in their casino--where else will you go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted November 15, 2008 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2008 The only time I saw anyone get a drink in the Casino was when someone won REALLY BIG!!! (Like a few thousand dollars.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KKB Posted November 15, 2008 #7 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Though occasionally we et to know the hosts well & they will comp one. If you want free drinks, go to art auctions (champagne), captain's cocktail party (usually first formal night for an hour), and champagne waterfall night (usually second formal night; may not be on all lines).

ladypalmtree Posted November 15, 2008 #8 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I have been cruising for years and love the casino's. The last three cruises I have been on I was comped a few drinks. Usually the casino host chats me up and buys me one when she sees me. LPT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
