Which days on the 12 night British cruises is the casino open?

[Flo71]

Not a huge deal that it is closed some nights, just wondering if anyone knows which nights or how many?

Not sure of the itinerary but the ship's casino is generally open when at sea.:D

What is your itinerary?

If its really port intensive it won't be open much.

If it's British Isles then probably closed more than open as the ship often does not get out of British waters.

Even when going to the med it is a minimum of four hours after leaving Southampton before it opens.

Aw that's a shame I like $20 in the slots after the show, oh well more time for relaxation and will save a little :D

I was thinking that may be the case, like ships here (Australia) have to be outside the 12 mile zone to open the casino, but wasn't sure of the British law in this regard. In my experience, they will try and have that casino open as much as possible as it is a great revenue earner for them and the passengers like to spend time there. :D

Only dedicated gamblers will be there during those hours.

I agree. The place must have been a ghost town.

[MicCanberra]

The dedicated gamblers will stay up or set an alarm to go gambling.:eek:

For sure!

[MicCanberra]

I would suppose the really dedicated gamblers don't cruise that itinerary (or at all).:eek:

[Flo71]

Not too bad then, I can get my slot fix every couple of days ;)

Princess does have a special program that allows any passenger to stop by the Service Desk when the Casino is closed and turn in the amount of money that they had planned to spend in the Casino. :D

Even when the casino is closed, the "Casino Vault" game is open as it is not considered gambling.

 

You can deposit your money there.

[MicCanberra]

No because if someone wins then its considered gambling. :p
