Crystal has launched the first Casino de Monte-Carlo at sea aboard Crystal Symphony during a ceremony in Venice, Italy!
This casino is part of an exclusive partnership with Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer (SBM) and will debut on Crystal Serenity on December 18 from Fort Lauderdale. Future ocean-going vessels, excluding expedition ships, will also feature this casino.
“We could not be prouder to unveil the first-ever Casino de Monte-Carlo at sea aboard Crystal Symphony this week,” said Executive Chairman of A&K Travel Group Manfredi Lefebvre. “There was no better choice for a gaming partner than Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer, founded more than 160 years ago and remains a global leader in the casino industry. I’ve known the team for many years and, like Crystal, they are fully committed to delivering upscale experiences that cater to the discerning tastes of travelers from around the world. The future is bright for both of our brands.”
