Currency for extra tips to ship crew

[tomcherv]

I used the search and didn't see my particular question (or one like it).

 

We're already planning on prepaying the tips before we board, but I want to also be able to tip extra to crew members.  My question would be the currency.

 

We're on Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas in July 2024.  Embarkation/Debarkation is in Amsterdam.  The cruise itself is to the arctic circle and the fjords of Norway.

 

What currency would be most welcomed by the ship crew?  USD, Euro, or Norwegian Krone?

 

Thanks,

Thanks,

If the ship's onboard currency is dollars, then dollars would likely be the most welcome.

I agree.  And euro would be okay too.

I was wondering the same thing - What currency to use for extra tips? Thanks @tomchervfor asking it.

 

Now I want to know how do you know what the currency is on the ship. I too will be on a Princess ship leaving Southampton for British Isles and Iceland. Where can one locate that info?

Princess will be dollars on board.

 

You could confirm that on the Princess board, here:
