No Casino on Silver Muse?

Looking over the newly posted deck plans, I do not see a casino anywhere. Am I missing something? I know that Viking's new ships and Europa 2 do not have casinos, but none on a Silversea ship? First no main dining room and now no casino. Are they trying to be like Disney?

We were told by an HD that the casinos on SS ships lose money. Maybe this is why there is not one on the Muse, if indeed this proves to be correct.

No doubt they'll be replacing them with more boutiques.

I can well understand this on the smaller ships. But Muse will have a much larger passenger load and thus more prospective gamers.

Come on, folks. Let's look on the bright side. The boutiques are still there! :)

 

At least from the deck plan drawings, the space allocated to the boutique(s) is much smaller on the Muse!

The placement and size of The Library makes me wonder if that's just been "penciled in" as a placeholder for a potential casino. The Spirit has the casino and Connoisseur's Corner next to each other so maybe. ???? No offense to our more learned Society members but I can't say I've seen the library exactly crowded on the Wind or the Spirit.

Of course the casinos on SS loose money their slot machines are old and outdated and are inconvenient to use. On Crystal I'm in the casino every night but on SS occasionally play a slot machine that is if you can find one that works correctly. This is my biggest SS complaint while I am an avid passenger on SS.

It's obvious what demographic they are pursuing and I am not part of it.

 

Wonder if SS has done any market research with their regular customer base regarding childrens' facilities. They may find out people are avoiding booking on the Muse as a result of that decision.

Last November whilst on the Whisper we got confirmation from SS Corporate via the VS host that there would be a casino and we included this in our blog on our Amazon cruise. The explanation offered was that aspects of the deck plans were still "fluid".

 

We made the enquiry to assuage UK Jeff's disappointment at the apparent lack of this facility.

 

Kindest regards
