Shaded Lady Posted April 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I did it through my travel agent. If you booked directly through Carnival, either by phone or online you should be able to call them and they'll process it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwaterhouse Posted April 2, 2014 #3 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I would like to prepay our gratuities can't seem to find where I can do this looking for a little help. The only way you can do it is by calling carnival if you booked directly through them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El CrappyTan Posted April 2, 2014 #4 Share Posted April 2, 2014 You request/select it when you book your cruise. Anytime after that, you have to call Carnival customer service to pre-pay gratuities. If you do not pre-pay your gratuities, they will be posted to your Sail & Sign account on the second day of your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rccranbob Posted April 3, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I just did this the other day, very easy process. Call Carnival and tell them you would like to pay gratuities it took all of 5 minutes.:):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissica Posted April 3, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 3, 2014 As everyone else said, we always do it through our Carnival guy. We didn't prepay on our very first cruise, and definitely recommend prepaying because it is just one less thing you have to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snc_cam Posted April 3, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I have two cruises booked where I initially paid for the pre-paid gratuities and then had my PVP remove this... Since I have some OBC and really don't use it for anything else, it will cover some of the gratuities with the rest being applied to my S&S and then paid with the credit card.

michaelandjoanne Posted April 3, 2014 #8 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I love the ability to prepay the tips. It's nice not to get a few hundred dollar charge on day two, there is still plenty of time to rack up charges on my S&s Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRU1Z1N Posted April 3, 2014 #10 Share Posted April 3, 2014 When you call, do they add them to your bill or do you immediately pay when you call? Final payment for our cruise isn't due until June 24 and we're making payments each pay day. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firemanbobswife Posted April 3, 2014 #13 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Can I call Carnival even If I booked with a travel agent? You will have to call your TA. Carnival won't (and can't) talk to you about your reservation when you have a TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done it a few times and worked better for me financially that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kntwait2cruz Posted April 4, 2014 #17 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Your PVP can add it to your current cruise. For future cruises you can add it thru your profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
