Casino's

I've taken a couple years off from Aruba and will return in November for my 9th trip. I was wondering if most Casino's have gone to the ticket system of payoff instead of coin. .Can't wait for our trip back.

Thank you, I noticed the Holiday Inn mentioning it in their ad, but no one else.

Cool

I live about 15 mins from Mohegan Sun in CT and they do the ticket system too...not exactly the same effect when you win of the coins dropping down into the metal tray below, but it is cool to out the ticket in the conversion machine and watch the hundreds pop out! Best of luck!

The Raddison still has many machines with coins... if the pay out is large enough a Staff member will do a handpay.

I haven't seen many casino's with coin machines in some time.... I couldnt beleive how fast the ticket system took off. The first time I remember seeing it was in 2002 at the Borgata in Atlantic City, NJ, and now every casino I have been to in the US (Vegas and AC) has gone on to the ticket system. I don't recall what they had last year at the Stellaris.
