Yes, that is a good question? Will the casino be open on a Qld cruise?

I hope so, as I'm taking my mum,

Yes, the casino was open. I think it was sea days and nights. Same for duty free.

Thanks Howsthis for your reply, :)

I was hoping the casino was open, this way it'll give my mum something else to do.:D

I thought duty free shops were only open whilst anchored at Willis Is? Isn't that the reason (and only reason) they go there?

there is some tricky rule that means all they have to do is anchor there for like 10minutes to allow the duty free shops to be open. Actually, i dont even think we dropped anchor there, because we certainly didnt actually stop.

 

The duty free shops are open pretty much as soon as you leave brisbane.

Sorry, my mistake. Didn't realise that being there for a (very) short while meant they could open anytime.

It has something to do with going into international waters but i dont quite know the technicalities of it. Ill have to do some research and report back here
