DLH Bellman Tipping- am I wrong?

[smartlabelprint]

I wish they had a bellhop tip option on the app or credit card swipers. I don't carry cash anymore and it makes it more difficult to tip.

Me too. I always have to go to the bank and get a pile of small bills just for travel.

The problem is that I don't have an account at a local bank. I have an account at Fidelity but no local brick and mortar bank. Not a problem though since I don't use cash.

I generally just save my $5s all the time. I don't use cash often, but when I get cash, I tend to hoard small bills. And I will hit the ATM for a few $20s before the trip.

I'm with ya - don't carry cash. However, when I travel I make sure I have $10 in one's and $20 in fives.

Always make a point of having a couple tens, fives, and some ones before leaving for the airport or the car for a trip. Valets usually get ten upon arrival unless, they help the Bellhop load the bags on the luggage cart, then they get $20. Bellman usually receive $10, unless it is an extended stay and we have more than a couple bags, then I tip $20. I tip the same upon leaving, unless they are very busy(mid-mornings), then I tip another $5 or $10. Yes, I tip about $60 to $80 every visit to the DLH or the Grand but, all the Valets and Bellhops I have dealt there with were very polite, courtious, and professional. I have never had anything happen to a car at the Disney Hotels or had a bag lost or damaged in any way.

When we stay at DLH or GCH, I plan on $40. 10 when unloading bags upon check-in, 10 when deliver to room, 10 when getting bags from room to check out and 10 loading bags in car upon leaving.
