CAS boarding

Going on rhe Escape next month

Do CAS bookings get any type or priority boarding

Just curious

It depends on port not ship. NYC had CAS boarding

Nope. Only New York that I have seen

In Boston you are given the next lowest boarding number but no clear priority

I thought I read that Miami has priority CAS boarding?? I may just be dreaming.:D

What's a CAS Boarding?

Casinos at Sea guests.

NYC no longer has CAS boarding. The area it used to be is now for Platinum/Platinum + & Ambassador. I went to go there in June and was stopped and I said I was CAS and they pointed to the cattle area across from that area so I asked a woman how she got behind the rope and she said her tier so I called the guy back & showed him my P+ status and he let me in.

No CAS boarding in Miami.

Do they have CAS check-in in NYC? and even though the CAS sitting area may be re allocated....... do CAS still board before general boarding?

Yes for check in but they don't have that "casino" card anymore, they gave me #5 but when they found out I was P+ they put me in the old CAS boarding area and we went before any numbers were called.

P and P+ get to board first as there was maybe 75 to 100 of them at most, waiting to board - following VIP's and special needs. Quickly followed by CAS to board, ahead of general boarding for the rest (by zone, numbered card, etc.)

This might well be different for the Breakaway out of NYC as it's a mega ship with more guests. In years past, CAS boarded ahead of Platinum on the BA. Of course, everything is subject to change, etc. etc. Folks that returned most recently, i.e. last week on specific ship with CAS and/or P/P+/A status could further elaborate - rather than a blanket generalization at busy ports, IMHO.

So best to check in as CAS but board as Platinum plus in my case right?

Just check out both lines and get in the best one for check-in. Then when you have your boarding card ask for the Platinum Plus area.

Thanks!!!

I see no reason for CAS Boarding since the casino's are closed. Their in a hurry to lose their money?

Funny.

Assume it was posted at Tongue in Cheek at they say.

CAS bookings were at one time treated as VIP. I think they were doing lower numbers of people, spending higher dollar amounts. It was an easy perk. Now they seem to be doing more CAS guests, though many on a smaller discount. Too many people and the rest of NCL (MAYBE) prefer to treat the real VIP/Tenured cruisers to that perk.

They are guests of the cruise line getting way more perks than a platinum member.

Sailing for the first time as a CAS person, what are the "way more perks"? I know we get a drink card for use in the casino. What else?

I am going to guess they are referring to the discounts on spa/on board purchases and comps for cruises. CAS guests can also get bottled water/red bull at no charge in the casino

This is our first CAS booking. The program says "embarkation" is a perk for all CAS levels. Does this mean a special check in line and earlier embarkation?

Priority check in line.

A few ports offer priority boarding. Most do not.

NYC does indeed have CAS priority boarding. The CAS line for NYC is conjoined with Haven.
