I don't recall the exact price, but I know it depends on how many cards you play. Don't discount on-board bingo. My husband wouldn't be caught dead playing bingo, but when were cruising, he plays every chance he gets. We drink Miami Vices while palying and have a ball! We've even won a few times, although never the jackpot. One of the best things about cruising is that you don't all have to do the same thing. If bingo's not your thing, let them go and you can spend your time doing something else. Tell them you'll meet them by the pool when they're done.
