Cybella1 Posted December 23, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Could someone who has cruised on the Celebrity Apex please help out with my question. We sailed on the Celebrity Edge and the only Keno machines were on the bar. We are not drinkers and we found it awkward taking a seat at the bar to play when a drinker could have sat there. We are considering cruising on the Apex and wondered if it was the same there or if they are have keno machines inside the casino, rather than at the bar as it's our favourite game. Looking forward to hearing responses from other keno players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldsc Posted December 23, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 23, 2023 My attitude would be if the only place they have keno machines is in the bar that is the place where I will play keno. If you are taking a bar seat to play your favorite game that is their problem and not yours. DON 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tina99 Posted December 23, 2023 #4 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I’m an only-Keno machine player and will be on Apex Jan 6, so I’ll let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokopelli-az Posted December 23, 2023 #5 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Take a look at the multi-game machines. They should have Keno as a selection on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina99 Posted December 24, 2023 #6 Share Posted December 24, 2023 There were a few Game King multi-game machines with Keno on Eclipse that I played on earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paylady Posted December 26, 2023 #7 Share Posted December 26, 2023 We just got off on 12/23. I didn’t notice any by the poker machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina99 Posted January 7 #8 Share Posted January 7 I’m on Apex now, reporting back on Keno machines. 😭😭 No Keno. No Game King machines at all, nor multi-game machines. I was so looking forward to playing Keno 😢 The final sting is I Love this Ship. I do not even mind the infinite veranda. I want to book another Edge class right now, but I must know if I can play Keno on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybella1 Posted January 7 Author #9 Share Posted January 7 Thank you to all the people who took the time to respond to my post. I have now have a definitive answer and sadly, the Apex does not have my beloved game of Keno. It's a shame that being an Edge class of ship, they have not caught up up with the upcoming group of new players to Keno, especially with Keno Nation now being more and more popular. Hopefully someone from the casino might read this post and perhaps be surprised that there a large number of us out there who want to enjoy this game. For me personally, I will not be choosing this ship for my future cruises. I love to enjoy my whole cruise and part of my enjoyment is looking forward to a fun game of Keno. Non Keno players might not understand, but for me it is something I look for in a cruise ship. Thanks again and enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina99 Posted January 8 #10 Share Posted January 8 Completely agree with you. As a devoted Keno player, it’s a major letdown to not enjoy my evenings in the casino. I hope to hear good news from someone with info about the other Edge class ships re Keno in the casino. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look forward to my Keno Play in the casino and this ship has it all except Keno. Bring Keno aboard and I will jump on board too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina99 Posted January 12 #12 Share Posted January 12 Confirmed ~ no Keno machines, Game King, or multi-choice game machines on Beyond. The Traveling Gamblers posted an extensive video of the casino on Beyond, showing every machine. They also have a video of Apex, which I had not seen prior to being on the ship this week and finding out first-hand there is no Keno in the casino 😢 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFO23 Posted January 12 #13 Share Posted January 12 We were on the Silhouette the first week of December. Game King machines with video poker and keno were in the casino the first few nights. About the third night we walked over to play and ALL of those machines had been removed overnight and replaced with other slot machines. So beware, this may be happening on all the ships, not just Edge class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted January 12 #14 Share Posted January 12 Let's face it folks Keno is a game favored by the AARP crowd. Celebrity doesn't care about what we want, they want to attract the younger crowd. I am also a 90% Keno only player and find this very frustrating. Even the ships that do have it only have 2, and they are often taken by poker players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Keno or anything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
