Embarkation Lunch Question

[OffKiltered]

I had a question about the embarkation lunch.

I understand that they try to usher you to the food areas immediately after boarding. If we happen to go to a sit down restaurant instead of the buffet, how is the tip handled for that? I'm familiar with the tip policy for the regular rotational dining, but unfamiliar with the policy for the embarkation lunch. Thanks!

Hi OffKiltered.

If we happen to go to a sit down restaurant instead of the buffet, how is the tip handled for that?

Tipping is always a kind and well appreciated gesture, however, for breakfast and lunch it is not mandatory.

I might be wrong about this, but I belive your options for the lunch on the 1st day on board are Topsides/Parrot Cay buffet or the "fast food" type places on deck 9. I don't think Lumires is open for luch that day, and AP is never open for lunch.
