Responsible gaming
Gambling involves risk and you can lose money. Play only for fun, and only with money you can afford to lose.
Our casino rules
- 18+ only. Age and photo ID are checked at the casino door.
- Casino entry is only for guests with a cruise + casino ticket.
- Casino tickets are limited (200 per sailing), and no more than 150 guests can be in the casino at one time.
- Casino tickets cannot be bought on board, so the decision is made before you sail, not on the spur of the moment.
- Staff can offer a break, information or help. You can ask to be blocked from the casino for the rest of the cruise at any time.
Warning signs
- Spending more money or time than you planned
- Trying to win back what you lost
- Hiding how much you spend or how long you play
- Borrowing money or selling things to keep playing
- Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when you are not gambling
Stay in control
- Set a budget and a time limit before you start.
- Treat money you bring to the casino as the price of the evening, not an investment.
- Take breaks. There is always a live show somewhere else on the ship.
- Do not gamble when you are upset, tired or have been drinking a lot.
