Leaving in 3 weeks You have to phone rccl to add the tips. To book the internet log Into your booking and at the bottom there should be book internet. Just follow the instructions and it'll add to your booking. Or you can book onboard. Sent from my SM-G930F using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiseguy1016 Posted January 6, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 6, 2018 You can book the internet for only one person, you don't need to pay for both passengers travelling together. You can do it on line in your Cruise Planner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeW Posted January 6, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Not Luck. The email clearly stated that you can prepay up until you cruise and be grandfathered at the old rate. (Below is from my TA, but text to me was same) I got the email a month ago so it should be anybody booked before mid-December. "Royal Caribbean is adjusting the automatic daily gratuity amount, effective 1/2/2018. • If you have already prepaid your gratuities for your sailing, no action is needed as you will be grandfathered into the current rates. • Guests currently booked that have not yet prepaid their gratuities will have until the time of sailing to do so at the old rate. After January 2nd, 2018, gratuities paid while onboard are subject to the new, increased rates. • If not prepaid prior to sailing, the new gratuity rate will be automatically applied to your folio onboard."

Ken at the beach Posted January 6, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Ahh, completely misread that info, thanks for the clarification. And they don’t have to be paid with final payment either. You can pay them within 48 or 72 hours of sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving in 3 weeks Now they are saying if you booked before the second of January you pay the old rate. We were charged the old rate and we just got off on the 5th, Yes One person can have the internet and you can use as many devices as you want- just not at the same time....
