Does the room service charge include the tip?

Hi everyone,

 

Heading out on the Pearl in a couple of weeks and had a question.

 

Does the $7.95 room service charge include the tip for the deliverer, or is it common to tip additionally?

 

Thanks, this is the first NCL cruise we have taken since the room service charge was instituted.

No, it is not included. From posts here, most usually just throw in a buck or two. Also, if you don't already know, there is no charge for continental breakfast and those in the Haven.

We're a lowly ocean view this time unless our bid for an upgrade is accepted.

 

Thanks for the information. We wouldn't use room service much, especially without a balcony, but I don't care to have people work for me for free.
