tipping 18% on free dining?

[cornish pixie]

Ok I've been thinking about this one and finally summond up the courage to ask, so please be nice
I always get in a pickle when it comes to the end of a meal as I always want to make sure I have tipped enough.
What happens with the disney dining plan? Is it included? If it is Do you give extra? I just don't want to do the wrong thing, So please let me know your experience's .
Thanks Cornish Pixie

I believe the server gets 18%, so our plan is to make it up to 20-25% for good to great service. Tipping is a pretty personal thing, and I have seen some pretty heated discussions in the restaurant forum. I tend to tip a higher percentage at breakfast too for good service because they work just as hard as dinner servers but have smaller bills due to reduced breakfast prices.

Yes 18% is included in your bill on the ddp for the server, we always tipped on top for good service (which we had 99% of the time).

It's included at 18% but you can choose to tip more if you like/have had exceptional service

Thanks for all your replys, If the waiters/ress are like our servers on the Wonder they will be getting above as the service was A*
Fingers crossed that they will be doing it next August and that we will be able to get it.
