CAI SETS SAIL WITH WINDSTAR CRUISES

Vienna, 21.06.2007 --- Casinos Austria International is delighted to announce the launch of three new cruising casinos on board the Windstar Cruises unique fleet of exclusive five-star sailing yachts.

The two luxury multi-sail-yachts each accommodate only 148 passengers in 73 deluxe, ocean-view staterooms. The casino on board the largest vessel in the Windstar Cruises fleet, the 308-passenger Wind Surf, commences operations on 1 July 2007 with a choice of 3 Blackjack tables, 1 Poker table and 27 slot machines. The Wind Surf offers deluxe ocean-view accommodation in 123 staterooms and 31 suites as well as a state-of the-art spa.
