DragonFlyPPS Posted September 30, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2017 New here. SKY is Open Bar. Tip or not to tip? Is the fee wrapped up in booking package? First time on NCL. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victory2020 Posted September 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Tips are included. Last week my family tipped extra $1unless bartender or server ignored us or didn't make drink with requested call brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogboy Posted October 1, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I tip a dollar every drink. It's not much and really appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted October 1, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Sky has higher daily charge to cover it. If you want to give more cash go ahead but if not it's already covered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted October 1, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 1, 2017 We are just off the Sky and tipped bartenders and waiters a dollar per drink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garvey818 Posted October 1, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Bar tenders are not included in the daily charge. You should tip them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanger727 Posted October 1, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Bar tenders are not included in the daily charge. You should tip them. Sky has higher DSC than the other ships. My understanding is that that is meant to cover the bartenders since they don't pay the UBP service charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garvey818 Posted October 2, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 2, 2017 The gratuities cover the room steward, restaurant servers and behind-the-scenes support staff. -- their words, not mine. Increased charge is supposedly because of the high demand for the alcohol included policy. Problem is that if you don't drink, you still get charged the same AND bottled water is not included. Fountain sodas are but not cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
