PANAVIERA PANORAMA

Earlier in the year we published a feature on this operation that involved the architects designs although they were impressive we wanted to return post opening, so our readers can see for themselves this impressive new destination resort casino.

How was the opening night?

We had our soft opening on the 12th September, a very tight deadline given the complexity of the project. Our official inauguration we separated into two events, one for local and international dignitaries and our partners on the 24th October and another one on the 25th for our customers.

Both events went down extremely well, included cocktails, a sea food extravaganza, celebrities and the most amazing firework shows.

It must be a very satisfying feeling for you and your colleagues the following day of the official opening.

Passion for service excellence and strive for the highest customer satisfaction has definitely given us an edge. “Smile à la Olympic”, we call it.

The macro economic conditions over the last 7 years have been challenging, and with so much competition in acquiring and retaining customer leisure spend; what makes OEG stand out and how have the company’s Gaming Operations weathered the tough operating climate?

Happy Christmas time with online casinos

December is by far the best month of the season to be a casino player. It seems that almost every online casino has an advent calendar running with a bonus, promotion, contest or tournament happening every single day. When you add it all up it represents the most amount of bonuses any player can take advantage of. Players can get free spins, no deposit bonuses, match bonuses, higher comp points, reload bonuses, various tournaments like slots or blackjack, contests and prizes. Probably the items people want the most but never expect to win are the prizes. Here is a breakdown of the bonuses you can expect to get this year and how you can increase your chances of winning something this Christmas instead of waiting to win “El Gordo”!

One year from the launch of Playing Safe how has it been received by the Casino industry?

Playing Safe has been very well received and we expect the level of acceptance to continue to increase as operators see that it adds differential value to casino operations.  The industry owns Playing Safe.

The attendees were a veritable who’s who of the British Gaming Industry. You must be delighted with the support that NCF has gained from the independent and major Casino operators.

We were delighted.  The industry has put an enormous amount of effort into Playing Safe and being able to tell such an esteemed audience about it was very rewarding.  It also demonstrated to operators that their faith and commitment to Playing Safe is being recognised and acknowledged.

Your welcome speech set the tone for the rest of the evening and the follow on speech from Philip Graf.
