Sand and Seas Posted January 23, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2018 On the NCL board, cruisers just back from the Escape are saying that when they skipped a port (GSC), the ship sailed to Nassau a day early and stayed overnight. What surprised me was that one of them confirmed that the casino opened that evening at 7pm while at Nassau. I was surprised Nassau/Bahamas allowed this. (The thread is 'Just back from the Escape'.) Has anyone else had an overnight in Nassau that allowed the casino to be open while in port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes on the BA I can confirm on multiple trips that the casino is open at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samiam0403 Posted January 23, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I sailed on Royal Caribbean (Majesty) last month with a stop in Nassau that was from noon (I think?) until midnight, and the casino on the ship opened at 7:00pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand and Seas Posted January 23, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Thanks for your responses! I had read that they had to go through special negotiations with Bermuda to open the casinos in the evening. With Nassau, I'm surprised Bahamas allow it as they have several casinos on the island.

gkbiiii Posted January 26, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Some older ships are of Bahamas Registry, thus they can remain open in Bahamian ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted January 31, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2018 It's also opened while in Bermuda.Keith NCL pays for a gaming license in Bermuda. Different than the “unexpectant” overnight in Nassau when sea conditions are unfavorable for anchoring and tendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
