earpiemom Posted August 1, 2005 #1 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Does anyone know the price range on bingo and what sort of prizes are given (cash?)Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knothead Posted August 1, 2005 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2005 The best I can remember the price range to play was $25-50, depending on how many cards you wanted to play. The winnings are based on the # of players. The regular non jackpot (last play of the cruise) wins were on average of $100 - 250 a game! The last jackpot game I've seen goes for as high as $10,000 or a free cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptData Posted August 1, 2005 #3 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Yes cards start at $25.00. The games are $100.00-$250.00 for prizes. One time they may play for a free cruise and the last Jackpot will be for whatever was not won on the build up one. Sometimes it is between $5000.00-$10,000.00.

stillababe Posted August 1, 2005 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2005 The jackpot on the Voyager (Canada) was $12,000. It cost $35 for a pack of cards, and an additional $15 for an extra jackpot card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeraldcity Posted August 2, 2005 #5 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Only played once, but it was $25 for six games ... and the prizes were $300 and up ... lots of bingo players on that cruise... I understand the prizes are based on number of players. I heard the big jackpot at the end was nearly $15,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeLuvVacation Posted August 2, 2005 #6 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Prizes are based on # of players LESS RCCL's cut. I do not know how much that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie P Posted August 2, 2005 #7 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Just got off the explorer and these prices are correct. My son got a junior pack to play for free. Kids can call bingo but the prize will be given to the parents! I thought this was very FAIR :-) I won the first game of bingo and split the prize with someone, we each got $69.00...... The jackpot on the Voyager (Canada) was $12,000. It cost $35 for a pack of cards, and an additional $15 for an extra jackpot card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMurph Posted August 2, 2005 #9 Share Posted August 2, 2005 We were on the Mariner July 3rd cruise. My husband and I always play Bingo. The "big" pack cost us $35. I'm not sure what else was available. My sister-in-law won the snowball bingo on the last day. The only game she played. Over $13,000. I have a great picture of her with a look of shock on her face. That $13,000 will come in very handy with twin girls starting college this fall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladiebug05 Posted August 2, 2005 #10 Share Posted August 2, 2005 We just returned from the 7/24 cruise in the Mariner ... I only played two bingo games ... one for the free cruise which was $20.00 for a sheet which had six bingo cards printed on it and again the last sea day for the jackpot which was a record at approximately $16,500. For the jackpot games we bought the packet for $35.00 which included four regular bingo sheets (6 cards per page) and one jackpot page (6 cards per page). Didn't win anything but it was fun playing!! I think the jackpot got split between three people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
