Aus Traveller Posted May 31, 2022 #76 Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) 17 minutes ago, CDaze71 said: @arxcards Can you please confirm or squash a rumor over in Facey land that P&O now add a $7.50pp/pd Tipping Charge to your onboard account? Thanks. I don't believe it for one minute. And I don't know where they would have got the $7.50 amount from unless it was from when tips were charged, that is prior to 2010. If they were charging gratuities now, it would be much more than $7.50. For interest, Princess stopped charging the auto gratuities on 1st May 2011. We were on the last cruise where tips were charged, and the first one where they weren't. Edited May 31, 2022 by Aus Traveller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do FB but could it be the charge for Pizza or breakfast delivery? Alot of people don't realise that P&O charge extra for lots of foods...Pizza, icecream, burgers etc whereas on Carnival these are free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
