When you pay as you go, do they auto tip 20% per drink, or do you get to decide the tip?

Anyone been on POA 9105 or 9107? Is that a decent floor and location? I like being close to the elevator and I need a family inside with 2 pullmans. The picture of the room on the booking page shows 1 and the floor plan shows 2. Any help is appreciated!

I'm looking for a hotel in Honolulu that possibly has these features: Shuttle from airport Shuttle to cruise port (NCL) Close to Pearl Harbor - I guess I would Uber there. Are there any out there? I'm trying to decide if I want to let NCL book my airfare and pay for transfers or if I want to do it myself. Cruise is 3 years out. I know I can't book anything right now other than the actual cruise, but I can't get it out of my head and I need to do as much research as possible now. TIA.

Yes I did that when I was pricing it. But I could use the soda package for sure with WAY lower gratuity price. I was just wondeing if anyone had experience with NCL allowing that or if it was even offered.

I've self-discovered that on POA, this beverage package is for all ages. So I understand why I'm paying gratuities for all four of us. What a waste. What child is going to go through $99 worth of soda a day? I still do wonder though if I can downgrade it, or if the Soda package is even offered on POA given the Hawaiian drink package is for all ages. Anyone know.

I'm about to book on Pride of America. I noticed the drink gratuity with the free drinks promo was rather large considering 2 in my cabin are minors and I read that minors can't have that package. Additionally, I'll have maybe a glass of wine each night and hubby won't drink at all. It is possible to get the soda package for free instead of the booze package and just pay out of pocket for the occasional cocktail or wine? I'd never drink enough to rationalize that kind of gratuity.
