Creator's Key Takeaways

For the past year and a half, I'd say almost all of our cruises have been cruises that we've earned from points inside of the casino.

Slots are probably the quickest and easiest way to do it. Table games would be second.

You're going to have to pay for it all up front. So keep that in mind too when you use these casino offers.

They're amazing and they do save you a lot of money.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check with your casino on the first day of sailing to understand points needed for offers.
✓Google 'Princess Casino points charts' for the current year's points breakdown.
✓Accumulate points by midnight of your last sea day to qualify for 'See You Soon' offers.
✓Sign up and update your information to receive email offers from Princess Casino.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Not being able to book within the 5.5 to 6-month offer window — If you can't commit to booking within that timeframe, this strategy may not be for you.
Understanding how points are earned across different games — Slots are the easiest way to earn points; table games are more speculative.
