Powerball Power Cruise promotion sets sail

February 5, 2017 Posted by NC Lottery at 1:07 PM

Calling all Powerball players!

Do you dream of sunshine, clear blue waters, and white sandy beaches during cold winter nights? If so, an adventure of a lifetime awaits with the Powerball Power Cruise Second-Chance Promotion.

Next January, 52 lucky North Carolina Powerball players and their guest will set sail on a five-night Power Cruise aboard the Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines Brilliance of the Seas® to Key West and Cozumel.

But the adventure doesn’t stop there.

VIP concerts with the Goo Goo Dolls and Flo Rida, opportunities to win cash prizes, and a chance to score the $50,000 grand prize makes this #PBPowerCruise one to remember.

How do you get on board? By playing Powerball with Power Play!

Starting Sunday, Feb. 5 and ending March 26, every time you buy a $3 Powerball with Power Play ticket and enter that ticket into Lucke-Rewards, you’re automatically entered for a chance to win. And, for the first time, eligible single draw and extended subscription purchases will be automatically entered into the drawings. It’s that easy!

Winners will be selected in six separate second-chance drawings. Once you enter, that entry will be eligible for all remaining drawings.

Odds of winning in any of the Powerball Power Cruise second-chance drawings depend on the number of eligible entries received.

You can view the drawing schedule and complete list of rules here. But we will be keeping you updated on upcoming deadlines and draw dates, so check back regularly!

Happy power playing and good luck!

Why is this game no longer available? NC Lottery
We don't understand your question. Powerball tickets are definitely for sale! And to participate in the Power Cruise Promotion, all you have to do is buy a $3 Power Play ticket and enter it here for a chance to win.

Turbo & Cookie - Most likely "play before pay".

Hey Oreo, All packs of $20 tickets have 30 tix in them & cost $600. No one will ever know how many tix he bought. One ticket, one pack, ten tickets or ten packs. We can not account for other peoples actions my friend. We can only let our moral compass be our guide. Good luck to you cookie, and may good karma be with you.

I would like to know why this man Pat is Atwood's time or three time winner and u guys did not return my answer on this questionNC Lottery
The rules allow members to enter as many drawings as they want. It's a matter of random luck who wins in a drawing. Good luck to you and everyone who enters.

How come every time I scan my ultimate Millions ticket it doesn't say that you've been entered into the second chance drawing? But when I scan any other Second Chance drawing ticket it tells you that you've been enteredNC Lottery

87SUPERGLIDE SAID So the owner of a grocery store buys a ticket at the store he owns and wins $4M. Nothing wrong here.. I was wondering the same thing 87Superglide! I'm thinking he must have bought the whole pack, since he owns the store and can afford to pay for them. He luckily happens upon the pack with the big one in it! Just wish i could afford to do that! Good Luck all!

I'm going to win tonight. I wish the best of luck to you all.

2/08/2017 11:15 - Denver G.

Trial & error! Yes you get multiply entries in the Power cruise contest when you buy a multi draw ticket online. One thing you DON"T get is additional entries when pay to extend your number for additional draws. No big deal, I just want to make players aware of this. I tried it just for the heck of it.

Why is the playing of power play required for the cruise ($3).The playing of ($2) would have just as feasible .The playing $2 for Powerball always appeared to expensive . Why not asks the players opinion on some the promotional programs .NC Lottery
The promotion is designed to remind players about the added value of Power Playing their tickets. It could turn a $50,000 prize into $500,000 or $1 million into $2 million, all just for one more dollar. So the promotion is a fun way to give folks even more value for their Power Play. The more folks that play that way, the more Power Play prizes folks will win! :-)

Now this would be a great win. One day it will be my turn good luck everyone

LZ, was the 12th & final winner of $2500 in the Dec. Dash for Cash an original or an alternate ?NC Lottery
We checked on this and the answer is the winner was one of the original winners drawn, not an alternate.

Player, click on promos, then rules. I got this for you, it should answer your question.**** 7. Entries are valid for all remaining drawings from the time each entry is entered. Players may submit more than one (1) entry per drawing. A player can only win one prize during the promotion. If a player’s entry(s) is selected to win more than one prize during the promotion, that player will be awarded the prize of greatest value.

Is my time

Purchased 5 '20x the cash ' on rollout day . Won with a 20x paying $20(20*$1).For a new ticket sold as 20x ,not impressive for a new rollout campaign rollout ticket .Same old minimum payout on your multiple payouts .NC Lottery
We're glad you won $20 on the $10 ticket. Hopefully your next winning ticket will win more.

Where is the "Holiday Millions" drawing?? I checked under "all" and do not see it, has the draw happened yet?NC Lottery
The drawing is scheduled for Wednesday. Scroll to the bottom of the page to SECOND-CHANCE DRAWINGS and adjust the display setting to ALL and you will see the drawing and your entries.

Nice contest !

So the owner of a grocery store buys a ticket at the store he owns and wins $4M. Nothing wrong here...

2/07/2017 02:04 - alfreda v r.

Are you sure you are getting my entries I've been in it since the beginning good luck everyone I hope we win 20-17NC Lottery
An entry you make has just as good a chance of winning a prize as anyone else's entry. There are lots of folks who belong to the players club taking a chance to win, with hundreds of thousands of total entries in most drawings. Good luck!

2/06/2017 10:30 - MICHAEL B.

Any reason that new scratch off tickets did not come out the first Tuesday in February.NC Lottery
Today is the First Tuesday of February. The tickets have been distributed to as many stores as possible. Some stores take more time to rotate in new inventory. Good luck!

2/06/2017 07:32 - Michael Y.

LZ correct me if I'm wrong but if you get a single entry in the powerball cruise it's really like getting 6 because it rolls into every drawing NC Lottery
Yes, your entries roll. So it's to your advantage to get entries in early :-) Good luck!

2/06/2017 06:54 - Marshall w.

I'm taking my chance, would love to cruise!!
