Bingo

Hi

Does anyone know if they do Bingo on the Destiny? I remember we played a couple of times on the Topaz - the prizes were some good credits to your account.

Just wondered if they do this on the Destiny. We're sort of thinking about how much cash we will need for things like this, Casino etc. We will have cards with us, but still want to have cash for things like this.

Yes they do. It rolls on over the course of the week. It has to go on the last day!

Oh, so there will only be one big winner at the end of the week?

On the Topaz I'm sure it was �10 and got won each night.

The Jackpot always seems to be won on the last night, very strange!!!!!!!!!

ON MOST SHIPS TOO very strange!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One ship we went on, if it wasnt won on the last night..it was rolled over to the following week with all new guests! scandalous!

Ok...I'm obviously missing something here. I take it there are prizes every night, but the snowball is on the last night (otherwise why would you sit crossing off numbers each night if no-one was going to win)??

I was on the Thomson Spirit two weeks ago and they played three games of bingo every afternoon and kept so much back for the last day of the cruise. However there are a lot of people who only play on the last day for a chance to win the big one and that week on the Spirit I believe it was �1500. People qued for an hour just for a ticket and the tickets cost �5.00 for a book of only one ticket for three games.

Good luck!

Hi Lc,

They do still have bingo onboard and it's usually played in the lounge at around 5-5.30pm.

Thanks Rachel! Not sure if that will be a bit early for us - suppose it depends what time we get back on the boat each day. I must have a look at the itinerary and what what the times in each port are anyway - I'm getting so excited now! 2 weeks, 3 days.
