  1. I agree. If musicians and lifeguards and others are now paid from the tipping pool, that represents a HUGE pay cut for stateroom attendants and wait staff. I would hope that isn't the case.
  2. ...and musicians and lifeguards, apparently. I'm wondering about that too.
  3. I never would have thought that musicians and lifeguards would share in the tip pool. That seems...odd?
  4. Do all of those people share the automatic gratuities?
  5. I bring my passport when going ashore in all foreign ports. Which is most of them.
  6. I hear that the acupuncturist can cure pretty much anything! 😁
  7. Not everyone that does a live review gets the banner. Not sure how they decide who gets it and who doesn't.
  8. That's correct. I don't do reviews while I'm on a cruise.
  9. Very true. I wish they had copied it further and included a skylight.
  10. Actually face mask requirements have been restored on some cruises:
  11. It's actually not so "rare". Lots of people have it.
  12. Agreed. It is surprisingly unintuitive and difficult to navigate, and that's when it's actually working. Even Cruise Critic agrees that Carnival's site is superior: https://www.cruisecritic.com/articles.cfm?ID=4139
  13. RC's shoreside service and technology leave a lot to be desired. It will be interesting to hear how they like the cruise itself.
  14. Therein lies the problem! πŸ˜‰πŸ˜
  15. I don't know if it's true or not, but some on here have indicated that if the auto tips are cancelled, any cash tips then go into the tipping pool, to be split among others.
  16. For everyone suggesting that the offenders be put off the ship at the next port, is this even feasible? Would the cruise line have to notify the host country of their intent to disembark these unruly passengers (some of whom might be in conflict with others also being disembarked)? Does the host country have to accept these passengers? Would they even want to? I'm not questioning the effectiveness of doing this, but I wonder how realistic this solution really is.
