icat2000 Posted March 17, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Does the Diamond have automatic tipping added to cruise if it sails from Sydney to Sydney? Thanks Tipping on the Diamond Princess is not included in the price. They add it on each night. Its an American based ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkmw Posted March 18, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I spoke with a Princess rep yesterday and she stated that tipping is included for Australian sailings. the tipping is only included on the 3 aussie ships, the Sun, Sea and the Dawn Princess and the others are US ships and the tips are not included unless your TA will throw them in for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further to my earlier posting, the no tipping policy will commence with her late 2014 sailings from OZ. :o If you want confirmation, ring Princess to confirm.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a lot of people were surprised. Nicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
