Social distancing

[negn]

Wonder if cruise lines will close and remove chairs from slots to keep social distancing

I've been wondering the same thing.  The land-based casinos that are starting to re-open have been shutting down some of the slot machines and/or removing chairs.    However, a large Las Vegas style land casino has more room to make wide aisle ways than many of the ship casinos.  Not sure how they would keep distance on ships without physically removing some slots.

Well they could get rid of half the people in the casinos if they didn't allow smoking.

Too many of them take up space smoking &  NOT even playing.🤨

Great point. Casinos on RCCL are designated as the only indoor smoking area. Lots of folks smoking and not playing. They can sit at machines but not tables.

Great idea.  Open space and improve the health of the casino staff and passengers who are playing.

casino's opened this week in Nor. Cal. I visited 3 of the 23 that opened. Two of the three didn't have the staffing to regulate the regulations, so if your were on a winning machine people would flock to that locale like flies to a fresh pile of horse shyt.  Nothing new in behavior from people. I would think the same onboard would take place.

Just heard that Las Vegas is opening this Thursday June 4.  They said no buffets. no valet parking, 6 limit at crap table, 4 limit at roulette table, etc.
