Can someone please tell me how much the gratuities are for the 5 night. I have them for the 3 night.
Thanks!
cris0809 said:PP suggested gratuities are $12, per guest, per night. No, they haven't done the math for a 5 night for you but I think the formula provided is plenty sufficient to figure it out?
What about gratuities?
Answer
It is customary to give gratuities in recognition of service, which you will be treated to in abundance aboard the ship. As a guideline, we suggest the following, but gratuities are always at your discretion:
Per Guest per cruise 3-Night 4-Night 7-Night
Dining Room Server $12.00 $16.00 $28.00
Dining Room Asst. Server $9.00 $12.00 $21.00
Dining Room Head Server $3.00 $4.00 $7.00
Stateroom Host/
Hostess $12.00 $16.00 $28.00
Dining Manager Your Discretion
Room Service Your Discretion
Palo Gratuity included
Vista Spa & Salon Your Discretion
Babysitting Gratuity not expected
Port Adventures Optional;
not included in port
adventure price.

Omg are u serious..... I have been figuring it out as per nite so I was saying 36 per nite per guest .... I was way over doing my budget.... Thanks so muchhhh for pointing this out since there is 6 in my family.. I can now lower that part of budget.... Thanks again....

I just booked our first cruise this morning and knew about the $12 per person per night for gratuities that are charged to your stateroom account. Envelopes are left for additional gratuities you want to leave. Is this typically left in cash or can you charge the additional gratuities to your account? And for those of you who tip extra, what additional amounts have you left? Not sure if it matters, but our cruise is a 4 night for a family of 5 in two staterooms.
My friend is a seasoned DCer.
She says go to Guest Services and modify the amount to $0.
At the end, use the envelopes.
... but I can't remember if she has been since last April'12 when the new policy took effect.
My suggested is $240 ($12x4x5) and I plan to bring $300 to cover it and I wouldn't mind doing what she said, then distribute accordingly at the end. Does anyone think it's presumptuous that they decide? Not you? I'm not talking about the amount because my total will exceed the suggested, but the concept.
Going by their method, each person receiving gets the base amount regardless of service (although I doubt bad service is going to occur).
Can what she said be currently done?
