As well all wait for the Coronavirus to subside and our lives to return to (somewhat) normal, you may be wondering how casinos may change one the pandemic is over. Certainly, things will be different… some for the short term and some much longer. But not all of the changes possible will be negative.
The days of buffets and large production shows are probably over, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be entertainment. It just won’t be on the scale that it used to be, which could mean big troubles for Cirque du Soleil and others. Nightclubs and public pools may also be in jeopardy.The reality is that not every casino operator may not survive this shut down, and those that do will have to implement some additional changes.
One of the most obvious differences will be found when you want in the door. Many operators will go to a fully automated check in and check out procedure using kiosks. Some changes may actually be good for hotel guests: Cleaning procedures, for example, will need to reflect the latest in recommendations from the CDC and other health authorities. Also, there will be a lot of deals on rooms at first… and this could be the end of hidden, so-called “Resort” fees.
