Built on behalf of Princess Cruises, a subsidiary of Carnival Corporation, Sun Princess is set to make its maiden voyage in the coming weeks.

Casino.org wants to put you on board for free, with the only caveat being your willingness to review the ship’s casino with $500 in complimentary gaming credits.

Casino.org estimates the top prize to be worth $8,000. The contest entry runs through April 30 at 3 a.m. EST.

Casinos Regain Importance

Cruise ship operators have recently refocused on their gaming operations, as interest in gaming as a form of entertainment continues to surge in the U.S. Gamblers stateside last year lost a record $66.5 billion at commercial casinos, sportsbooks, and online casinos.

Once confined to Las Vegas and Atlantic City, the vast expansion of casinos throughout the U.S. has led to gambling becoming a more acceptable form of entertainment. And many cruisers seek to test their luck after their ship ventures into international waters.

Princess Cruises isn’t the only major cruise line dedicating considerable floor space for gaming in its newest vessel.

Icon of the Seas, currently the world’s largest cruise ship, made its maiden voyage in January. It has 370 slot machines and 30 table games. Like all casinos operated by Royal Caribbean, the gaming space on Icon of the Seas is branded Casino Royale.

In recent years, cruise ship casinos have gotten not just larger and more high-tech but also even more exciting and engaging thanks to robust features and perks you may not be aware of,” Royal Caribbean’s website explains of its Icon of the Seas Casino Royale. “Not surprisingly, the newer and larger ships in the fleet have the most impressive casinos, with thousands of square feet of space brimming with hundreds of slot machines and gaming tables to appeal to different interests and skill levels.”
