What tip do you leave?

[harley48]

What is the "Norm" additional tip you leave in the Cucina Del Capitano & Steak House. We have dinner reservations on The Sunshine for one night at each of these restaurants.

We leave what we would in any other restaurant...20%.

It's my understanding that the extra fee you pay is the tip. Leave extra if so desired, but not required.

[RaiderCruiser]

The standard gratuity is added to your bill. Tip whatever extra you feel the service warranted.

Cucina is $15 pp and we usually tip $5. For 2 of us.

Sometimes more depending on the service.

Cucina del Capitano we tip $5 per person.

The steakhouse we tip $10 per person.

It's included in the up charge so you've tipped already no need to double tip.

Incorrect understanding. Part of the $35 upcharge for the Steakhouse goes to CCL and an undetermined part is given to the waitstaff.

 

CC posters have been wondering for years what the actual division is, and Carnival has never said.

 

So a gratuity is included, and you are free to tip extra or not as you see fit.

Why the different amounts?

[izmeeh]

Are people really leaving 30% tip on top of the standard gratuity of 15% that has already been added? I understand another 5%-10% but 30%? Your waitstaff is lucky!

when did they start adding the tip to the bill? I haven't been on CCL in a few years and it was never added before.:confused:

Why??

Because Cucina del Capitano cost $15 per person so I tip $5 per person.

Because the Steakhouse cost $35 per person so I tip $10 per person.

20% of what? The add on cost? The value of the meal on land?

The tip is included. No need to tip anything more.

This question has gone round and round on the boards for years. Just let your conscience be your guide. Personally, I make a good living. I like to leave the impression that Americans are kind and generous people, so I tip accordingly. If I am being foolish, so what? It is my money.
