Should have said thanks for the advice about onboard credit to Caribill and explanation of this from Pam from CA

Sorry, please don't fall out and thank you all for the replies. It really isn't that important, I was just curious. Below is the link that made me think about it. (I hope it works)

I have just checked with our Travel Agent and they confirmed our (UK) gratuities are definitely not prepaid unless agreed at time of booking.

I will take Pam's advice and just 'gift credit' to myself.

The only reason I wanted to do this was with excursions booked and paid and gratuities pre-paid, everything esle could be spent on whatever I feel like.

Thanks again everyone.

Hello all,

I have just booked and prepaid our excursions on Sapphire Princess for next year.

Now I am curious as to why most travellers can pre-pay their gratuity charges for the entire voyage with the exeption of bookings from UK, Australia and New Zealand.

Does anyone know why we are the exception?

Love to find out the reason, if anyone knows.

Regards,

Rose
