    Buggy/pushchair

    in First Time Cruisers

    Posted

    Buggy/push cart? Is this child disabled or are you talking about a stroller for a baby or toddler?

     

    Wheelchairs can be rented prior to boarding the ship. Otherwise umbrella strollers can purchased for $20 at Target before you leave home.

    In the UK they call them buggy or pushchairs

    Sailing 3rd June on the independence

     

    does anyone know if you can hire a pushchair/buggy for the little one, not for when on board, its for when we dock and visit places like Florence, Rome etc,

     

    or do we have to take our own, if so just thinking where we going to store it in our cabin

    What's it to you? I don't go to my local grocery tore and ask them how much they make, when their next pay raise is, bonus or anything else. It is none of my business. Nor is it yours. If you don't like the policy then, well, too bad. I also don't go into my favorite restaurant and ask about their tipping policy. If they don't want to work there or on a cruise ship then quit.

     

    If you are looking for an excuse not to pay your tips then shame on you. If that is really your goal then what is the point off coming on a cruise website to ask any question that you already know the answer to.

     

    By the way, would you mind explaining to us how you get paid and how we really know you get paid that way. Please include your pay rate and proof of what you are telling us. Wait you say! It's none of our business what you make. Right back at ya!

     

    ADDING: Interesting. You put down in your profile you were born in 1939 and now you are in your 30s. Also since you are from the UK this is clearly your way of justifying not tipping. You are a horrible traveler if you refuse to adapt to the culture of where you are. I bet you scream loud and long about how everyone who tips when the come to the UK are ruining your country. So you want us to keep your culture and you don't want to do it yourself.

    How do we really know all gratuities we pay really go to all employees and not lining corporate bosses pockets, its all about maximising profits with them and funding new ships

    So long story short to guarantee employees get all the gratitude hand it to them in the envelopes provided?

    Royal Adventure centre and my family time dinning gratitude

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    Hi we're going on the Indy 3rd June and this is our first cruise and have auto gratitude added already

     

    We are wondering do you have to pay the same gratitude again per child for adventure centre (kids club) and pay again per child for my family time dinning in the evening (this is when they feed your kids in the first 40 minutes and then take them away to the kids club and you enjoy the rest of your meal in peace )

     

    By the way we have 3 and 6 year olds

     

    So my question is will we be paying daily gratitude per child three times a day for the whole 14 night cruise

     

    Thanks
