We leave auto-tips in place (although we have adjusted them down, which is a whole other story) but I would never adjust those up. Simply because they are then reportable as income. :)

 

We leave somewhere between 40-60 for our room steward if superior service was provided.

 

We leave around the same for our wait staff in the MDR, when, again, superior service is provided.

 

I have tipped the Maitre'd exactly ONCE, because he visited our table a great deal and I simply felt like it.

 

We've also tipped the 'Special Services' person (a young lady in our case) who handled a food allergy at our table with a level of service I frankly didn't think there WAS on Carnival.

 

 

Reportable as income to who? The crew doesn't pay taxes.
