Mohegan Sun's Fixed Location and the Kronos Machine Question

What the question asks, and what this article can answer

The reader wants to know whether one specific slot title, Kronos, is on the floor at Mohegan Sun. That is a live inventory question, and no published reference source can answer it from outside the building. What this article can do is anchor the venue itself: where it sits, how large its documented slot floor is, how far it lies from major reference cities, and how a reader can confirm the current machine list before travelling.

Mohegan Sun's documented slot-machine count is 6,500. That figure comes from publicly published reference sources and describes a point in time, not today's floor. Slot floors change titles constantly; a machine that was present last quarter may have been rotated out, moved, or replaced this week.

The venue's fixed position

Mohegan Sun is in Uncasville, Connecticut. Its documented coordinates place it at 41.49222222 degrees north latitude and -72.09138889 degrees west longitude. That is the fixed reference point for every distance in this article.

The venue sits in the southeastern part of Connecticut, east of the Connecticut River and north of the Long Island Sound shoreline. Using only the coordinates supplied, the property is west of Rhode Island's border and south of the Massachusetts line. The city of Uncasville is a small, unincorporated village within the town of Montville, in New London County.

The venue opened on October 12, 1996, and is owned and operated by the federally recognized Mohegan Tribe. The property includes more than 364,000 square feet of gaming space, 370 table games, and two hotel towers providing more than 1,500 rooms.

Straight-line distances to reference cities

Every figure below is a great-circle distance, measured as the crow flies between documented coordinates. Road distance is always longer. This article does not publish driving miles, route numbers, or travel times.

Some reference points appear more than once because the same location was recorded under different names in the source set. Where two entries share a value, such as New York City and Manhattan at 113.3 miles, that reflects the same coordinates filed under two labels.

Why straight-line distance is not your trip

A great-circle line cuts across terrain, water, and state borders as if none of them existed. The real journey follows roads, and roads bend around geography. Southeastern Connecticut is a landscape of river valleys, forested ridges, and a deeply indented coastline. A straight line from Mohegan Sun to Long Island crosses the Sound; a car must go around it. A straight line toward Boston crosses the Quinebaug and Shetucket river systems and the high ground of the Eastern Highlands. None of that appears in a crow-flies number.

Road distance is also shaped by where the highway network goes, not by where a map-drawing tool wants it to go. Interstate corridors follow population centers and historical routes. Crossing a state line adds no distance by itself, but the road network on either side was built at different times to different standards, and the connection points are fixed. The result is that a 113.3-mile straight-line figure to New York City becomes a materially longer drive, and the same is true for every row in the table above.

This article does not publish road mileage, route numbers, exit numbers, or travel times. Those figures change with construction, traffic, and the exact starting point within any metro area. The authoritative source for a driving route is a current mapping application, used on the day of travel.

If the question is "from me" or "from my location"

The venue's position is fixed. The reader's position is not. No article can know where the reader is standing, and no honest writer should guess. The correct method is to take the venue's documented coordinates, take the reader's own coordinates from a phone or a map, and measure the great-circle line between them. Any mapping tool will do this in seconds.

What the table above provides is a set of reference cities with documented straight-line distances. A reader in Hartford, Providence, or Springfield can see that none of those three appears in the table, which means this article cannot state a figure for those pairs. The reader can still locate Uncasville on a map and see that the venue sits roughly between Hartford and Providence, closer to the Rhode Island border than to the New York line. That is a coordinate-supported orientation, not a distance claim.

What governs whether a specific slot title is on the floor

Slot floors are managed as rotating inventories. A casino of Mohegan Sun's documented size carries thousands of machines, and the mix changes for reasons that have nothing to do with the building's geography: lease agreements with manufacturers, performance of individual titles, floor re-theming, regulatory submissions for new games, and seasonal demand. A title like Kronos may be present under one manufacturer's cabinet in one quarter and absent the next.

The venue's own slot-finder or guest-services channel is the only place that holds the current answer. Many large properties publish a searchable machine list on their own site, updated by floor operations. A reader who wants to know whether Kronos is on the floor today should check that channel, or call guest services from the number on the venue's own contact page, and ask by exact title. The answer will be current for that day only.

No third-party article can keep a live machine list current, and this one does not try. What it can tell the reader is the documented scale of the floor: 6,500 slot machines across more than 364,000 square feet of gaming space. That is the context in which any single title sits.

What to confirm before you go

Several items change without notice and should be confirmed through the venue's own channels before a trip. The current slot inventory is the first, for the reason above. The second is the venue's operating status and hours, which are not published in this article. The third is any access or entry policy that may apply on the day of travel. The fourth is the driving route and road conditions, which belong to a mapping application, not to a static article.

The channel that holds each current answer is the venue's own published page or guest-services line. Confirm the machine title, the hours, and the route on the same day you plan to travel. A figure that was true last month is not a figure you should spend money to act on today.

FAQ

Does this article confirm whether Mohegan Sun has a Kronos slot machine right now?

No. A specific slot title is live floor inventory, and no published reference source can confirm it from outside the building. The venue documents 6,500 slot machines, but the mix changes constantly. The current answer lives only in the venue's own slot-finder or guest-services channel, checked on the day of travel.

How far is Mohegan Sun from New York City?

The documented straight-line distance is 113.3 miles, measured great-circle between coordinates. Road distance is longer and is not published here. The same pair appears as Manhattan at 113.3 miles because both labels refer to the same coordinates in the source set.

Where exactly is Mohegan Sun located?

Mohegan Sun is in Uncasville, Connecticut, at 41.49222222 degrees north latitude and -72.09138889 degrees west longitude. It sits in southeastern Connecticut, west of the Rhode Island border and south of the Massachusetts line. The venue opened on October 12, 1996, and is owned and operated by the Mohegan Tribe.
