For those of you on the fence about calling for the Member Cruise. The price includes tips (regular cruises do not). A nice little extra that makes it a great value.
 
Now, was this mentioned along with the cancellation policy? I guess I wasn't paying close enough attention. Is it true for all categories of staterooms?

Yup true for all categories!

Yes, she mentioned it while she was going over the cancellation policies. Very nice bonus!
 

My CM didn't mention it, I saw it posted here and got so caught up in the excitement of talking to an actual CM, I forgot to ask about it. Can't wait to receive the first email update. I heard the recording at least 20 times about the first email to cruisers was being prepared already!
 
Based on a great tip calcuator that someone posted a couple of weeks ago on the cruise board click here the tips per person on this cruise would be $43.60.
 
Nice perk in theory, I just hope DCL does the right thing and tips the staff out of their own pocket instead of forcing them to work pro bono. If members end up receiving lousy service on this cruise as a result of CMs knowing there's no tip coming then there wouldn't be much of a benefit.
 
Well since Disney has been known to take care of the CM's when they miss out on tips (cancelled cruises etc.) I'm sure they will be well taken care of. Plus since we always tip more then the recommened (as do many others) I'm sure the CM's will do well. They really seemed to enjoy the last member cruise as well since they knew the ship was filled with people who really understood Disney.
 
Perhaps because it's a chartered cruise, the chartering entity takes care of tips and it's part of the price.

Maybe thats the explanation for the member infant 100% surcharge.;)
