Fishymom Posted August 20, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I love a good game of Bingo on the ship, but I have to admit the sticker price always shocks me....notice I didn't say stops me ;) Those that have cruised and played on other lines ( no need to name, names since this is NCL board) Are NCL Bingo package prices ($29, $49 and $69) in line with others?

Love my butler Posted August 20, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Bingo costs an arm and a leg. The payouts are pitiful. Truly robbery on the high seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLArmyWife Posted August 20, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I'd say they do seem to be. We did a short 3 day 2 night to Grand Bahama at the beginning of July. Night 2 we did Bingo and it was $40 for 3 boards (1 for each game). They were the type where they had like 3/4 of a hole and you fold back/down the paper for the # called on your board. This time last year did a 7 day through a whale tail ship and we played bingo. It was around $40 or $50. It included 3 boards for each of 3 games (so 9 boards total) and a "collectible dabber". I won the 1st game on the 1st night and got a $100 OBC. That was nice as we hadn't originally had any extra $$ for drinks and the OBC winnings covered bingo and a few drinks.

PATRLR Posted August 20, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I love a good game of Bingo on the ship, but I have to admit the sticker price always shocks me....notice I didn't say stops me ;) Those that have cruised and played on other lines ( no need to name, names since this is NCL board) Are NCL Bingo package prices ($29, $49 and $69) in line with others? I think they are inline, although I don't have specific numbers to cite. We've been on NCL, RCCL, and CCL recently and they all seemed to be about the same.

Son of a son of a ... Posted August 20, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 20, 2018 It is a factor of pot and players ... someone has to win. If you see 100 players, you have a 1 in 100 chance of winning. I don’t think the payoff is worth the play given the house take. If they have a few free cruise in play, then go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa Posted August 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Bingo costs an arm and a leg. The payouts are pitiful. Truly robbery on the high seas. Well, reality can be funny too. I happened to like your answer very much and I get it, bingo = 'pirates of the seas'. Maybe I even play a game to use/waste some of my OBC, we'll see. Thanks.:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenquixote66 Posted August 21, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Bingo costs an arm and a leg. The payouts are pitiful. Truly robbery on the high seas. I refuse to pay .I much rather put the money in a slot machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClevelandCruisin Posted August 21, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Last time we played bingo on the Epic, we were double charged $69. What a hassle trying to get the money back. Bingo is fixed. Its reserved for newbies or people who love red tickets. Sent from my SM-G960U using Forums mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClevelandCruisin Posted August 21, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 21, 2018 It's fixed. They know every winning card ahead of time. Don't forget to buy your pull tabs. Sent from my SM-G960U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
