what kind of charges on your KTTW card?

[kathneric]

Hi All! In an effort to try and budget myself for our upcoming July NYC to Canada cruise, I'm trying to think about what things I plan on charging. The obvious thing that comes to mind is alcohol. I actually cannot think of anything else, except maybe souvenirs in the shop. What kind of things did you charge while on the cruise?
Also, can someone give me an idea of how much your brought for tips and who you tip? I know there is an equation for how much and for who but our last cruise was awhile ago and I really don't remember.
Thanks everyone

with respect to charging on board, everything you purchase has to be charged as they do not accept cash anywhere. You are correct though, items from the stores and alcohol are obvious, however don't forget about photos from Shutters, snacks to eat in the theatre and bingo cards....

Tipping works out to $12 / day / person in the stateroom. Tips are left for your stateroom host, head server, server, assistant server. the tips will be added to your account automatically.

Thanks for the response, I definitely was forgetting about the photos, I also didn't realize there was no cash at all, so thanks for saying that.
I also didn't know that about the tips being automatically applied so thanks for your response!!

Hi - in addition to what was listed so far, I had forgotten all about the cost of iced water bottles on the beach (something like $8.50 for 6 bottles) and beach toys (lots of buckets and shovels to choose from) if you have small children. We also rented snorkel equipment, which ended up being $60 for 2 adults and 1 child.

Enjoy!
