Rivers Casino and Rush Street Gaming have entered into a partnership with MSC Cruises, allowing members of the Rush Rewards loyalty program to embark on voyages with the world's fastest-growing cruise brand.
The standout benefit for players in the loyalty program is the opportunity to enjoy free trips on MSC Cruises. However, the perks don’t stop there. Other advantages of Rush Rewards include monthly mail offers, complimentary slot play, food and beverage gifts, discounts on stays at The Landing hotels, and much more.
The level of annual rewards is determined by a player's progress within the Rivers Casino Rush Rewards program. Registration is free, and players can advance through the tiers by accumulating points earned from playing slots, video poker, table games (including electronic versions), and wagering at BetRivers Sportsbook.
Rush Street Gaming and its subsidiaries operate Rivers Casino locations in several U.S. cities, including Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Des Plaines, Schenectady, and Portsmouth, generating over $1.5 billion in annual gaming revenue. MSC Cruises, based in Geneva, is the third-largest cruise brand in the world, boasting a fleet of 21 modern ships and a robust investment portfolio. The company also leads in markets across Europe, South America, the Gulf region, and Southern Africa, with plans for further expansion into the Caribbean, North America, and the Far East by 2025.
Ruben A. Rodriguez, President of MSC Cruises USA, commented on the new deal: "The expansion of our relationship with Rush Street Gaming and Rivers Casino allows us to offer our most loyal players incredible travel benefits around the globe." He also noted that MSC Cruises ships provide access to ports in numerous countries, catering to those seeking new experiences.
Tim Drecoff, CEO of Rush Street Gaming and Rivers Casino, expressed his excitement about the opportunity for casino guests to enjoy free travel on MSC Cruises' luxurious and modern liners. He highlighted the first-class amenities of the fleet and the variety of travel destinations available.
