Hi all,
First time cruiser next year - going on a 4 night cruise next July on the Disney Dream. Help me understand the tipping situation. So a certain amount for tips is added to your onboard charges correct? Then I am hearing you can add more for good service.
1.) So usually when you eat at a restaurant you leave a tip for the waiter or money in room for housekeeping, or directly to the bell services. - I assume this is not how it is done on a cruise?
2.) If not, then when do you give the tips to the waiters, your room attendant, etc..??
3.) if you want to add more how is that done - handing them cash?...or is it better to add to onboard account?
4.) If using onboard account what do you actually hand the waiters, attendants, etc.?
Thanks for the help to this novice.
