Cruising Golfer Posted June 24, 2013 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Don't know who you are sailing with, but on Carnival they are all ready added into the cost of the package... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted June 24, 2013 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I believe most lines add the gratuity into the package. If this was me I would post this on the cruise line board that you are sailing. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkNC Posted June 24, 2013 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Every line we have sailed on automatically adds tips to the beverage package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennmaybe Posted June 24, 2013 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2013 We have purchased the beverage package through both Carnival & RC and the tips were added in with the price. We did not feel the need to tip extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted June 24, 2013 #6 Share Posted June 24, 2013 On Princess, they add 15% to the cost of any drink or drink package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted June 24, 2013 #7 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Cunard automatically adds 15%, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted June 24, 2013 #8 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Whether you use Beverage Cards, buy drinks separately, or buy a drink package -- on HAL the 15% gratuity is automatically added. If there is a particular server you get to know and he/she takes care of you the majority of the cruise, and if you feel like giving them an extra tip at the end of the cruise, you can do so. We just slip the extra tips to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
