Can someone who isn't really a gambler earn FREE Royal Caribbean cruises? A few weeks ago, I set out to find out. I brought an $800 bankroll, played low-denomination slot machines, earned 600 Club Royale points, and documented the entire experiment. Now the results are in. In this follow-up, I'm sharing every casino offer I've received, exactly how much I spent, what I learned about Royal Caribbean's Club Royale program, and whether earning casino offers was actually cheaper than simply paying for cruises myself. In this video you'll learn: • How Royal Caribbean's Club Royale program works • What "coin-in" actually means • How many points it took to earn offers • Every casino offer I received after my cruise • My biggest mistakes • What I'd do differently next time • Who this strategy makes sense for—and who should avoid it ⚠️ This video is for informational purposes only and is NOT financial or gambling advice. Gambling always involves risk, and you should never gamble money you cannot afford to lose. 📧 Need help planning your next cruise?
