Casino rates and friends

[funinthesun1964]

I have never inquired about this before, but lately I have been receiving casino offers.  Not great offers, but better than regular prices.  Question:  Can I book two cabins - one for friends or relatives - and get the same price as our cabin?  TIA

I'm getting a no on that. The named person on the casino offer also has to be on the cruise or the offer is not valid. So you can't book with someone else, and then be a no show.

oh, believe me, I definitely won't be a no show!  It would have to be someone else.  I want to cruise!

The short answer is no. These offers are tied to your VIFP number and you have to be in the cabin in order to book under that promotion.

Maybe. If you and spouse both have a great casino offer, you could each book separately under each VIFP number and each book with another guest. Then once onboard switch off room cards through Guest Services. Not positive how that would all play out since those offers often involve OBC/FunPlay cash.

No casino offers are only good for 1 cabin with the person it was offered to in it.

That's a great idea.  But, hubby doesn't get the offers, only me.  So that won't work.  Thanks for chipping in though

Just as I thought. Thanks!

No, but you can contact a casino host and inquire about a casino rate (discounted) room for your group.

 

They want your money, they'll work it out
