Casino Hours Cruising Alaska

[Midwestern Cruiser]

Am trying to figure out when our group can have a slot pull on Nieuw Amsterdam, but am not having a lot of luck finding hours of operation.
Will it open between Glacier Bay and Icy Strait Point?  Will be sailing, but it's only a couple of hours, so I'm not sure it would be worth it for them.

I'm doubting it will be open while sailing Stephens Passage, but really don't know.

What about late back on board ports -- will the casino open after 10pm when we leave Juneau or Icy Strait Point?

 

Thanks for any details you can share ... or a link to a post where this is already discussed (I searched, but didn't have any luck).

Casinos are open a few minutes after leaving a port and closed just before arriving at a port.

Not all Casino games are open all the time - but if the ship is sailing there is always some

sort of gambling going on.

 

Two events after a Meet & Greet (Mingle) are the Cabin Crawl and Slot Pull - schedule

to avoid a conflict of time

 

Best contact the Casino Manager to arrange that Slot Pull - to have the machine(s) 

made available for your private event and to load the machine with monetary value

and the disbursement of the winning funds afterward. Maybe a limitation or minimum

number of players to do this.

So you know it will be open between Glacier Bay & Icy Strait Point? And opening after 10pm following late departures?

Know about working with the casino. Not having a meet & greet. Just need 'for sure' hours...

Casino will not be open while in Glacier Bay. 

I assume that it will open after the late ports, if its permitted. When we cruised, the casino had to close a few hours before Victoria.

Right - never open in Glacier Bay - asking about the couple hours from there to ISP.

Not stopping in Canada, but really hoping to get 'for sure' answers about late departure ports.
