hummer2407 Posted February 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2017 We are leaving Genoa on March 19 on the Splendida. Does anyone know what the exchange rate is on the boat or in the casino? If I goto the casino and sit down at a machine and put my card in the machine and use my room charge to put 200 Euro on my machine then cash it out and take the slip to the casino cage and get Euros for the $200 what will the exchange rate be? I am assuming that the rate will be whatever my credit card exchange rate will be when I settle up at the end of the cruise. Is this the way it works? With my credit card by running the money through the money and "playing" it I get triple miles because it is charged to the room and the room charge is a travel charge. What is the best way to get cash while on the cruise? I wont need alot, just for tips and snacks on shore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better check your credit card to see what the overseas transaction fees are as this will be an added cost. All charges on board will be in Euros not US$. The exchange rate will be determined by your credit card company not the cruise line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinita415 Posted February 27, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I used ATMS when I was on land. When I cashed out my casino vouchers, I got cash back in €. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hummer2407 Posted February 27, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I have no foreign transaction fees for my credit card so I suppose it will just be the exchange rate that the cadr company applies. This is normally a good rate when I have used the card in the past. I expect to get Euros and not Dollars. Although I was asked at the casino cage on the Divina if I wanted my money in Euros or Dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
