Casino
NCL Bliss Casino has solved the smoking problem! The casino is on Deck 7 Midship and is divided into two sections. The smoking section is behind a glass wall with a guard on the entrance. All can enter but if you want to smoke you MUST BE PLAYING on a machine or gambling at the tables. This room did two things; 1. Passengers are not sitting at machines and just smoking. 2. The entire center section of the ship and the non-smoking section of the casino is SMOKE FREE!
The casino has many slot machines of different betting amounts from 1 cent to lots of dollars. There is a high roller section, table games, and lots of tournaments going on daily. In the morning you will find a coffee and tea service set up just incase you want some more coffee. Of course your choice of drinks can be had on the floor at any time. The Bliss Casino is open 24/7 when the ship is out to sea. Gambling money can be charged to your key card and their are casino benefits to be had.
