bnorris10 Posted September 7, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2014 We have only been on one other cruise before and it was carnival and for that we were charged something like $96 ahead of time to cover tips so are the tips already covered for this one in the price?

FireEater Posted September 7, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) No, you still have $12 a day per person is put on your on board bill. That does not include the 15% for ordering drinks each time. Edited September 7, 2014 by FireEater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO, 15% is too low for hands on spa treatments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex techie Posted September 7, 2014 #9 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I could say you could figure it out before, know what the Auto is and add more if you feel it was worth some? ;) Maybe they keep it low so you do add extra! You know what Steiner are like! lol! ex techie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
