Notes on these figures
Casino modernized with new equipment and a new layout in the Feb-Apr 2026 refit at Palumbo Malta (CIN, 10 Apr 2026). Cruise Critic lists craps and a separate poker room on Deck 6, but that text may predate the refit and craps is not on URComped's Dec 2024 list. Counts and size not published. MSC/Galaxy Gaming said 7 North America-based ships got progressive blackjack jackpots (30 tables) in Aug 2026, but did not name the ships, so it is not confirmed for this ship.
