Creator's Key Takeaways

I hope to have a good cruise this time. So, even if I don't do good in the casino, I know I'll still have a wonderful time on the cruise.

This particular selling was done as a casino comp from Carnival, and it's called one of their premiere offers.

So, for the first time in a long time, I got no bounceback certificate on this cruise.

So, got me stocked up for candy for my next two cruises. So, that part was a perk.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use your Carnival credit card for casino charges to get double points and avoid carrying cash.
If you hit around 6,000 points, stop by the hostess desk to ask for an onboard comp.
Wait until towards the end of the night to play in the casino to avoid crowds and smoke.
