  1. Hello. First and foremost, I have no issue tipping porters who help. I have however heard some horror stories about the porters at Port Everglades who request a tip before you even get out of your vehicle and that I have an issue with. I tried to do some research with the port, however they claim that porters are hired by the cruise lines. Please see below:

     

    Good morning Steve,

    The Porters are representatives hired by the cruise lines. Please contact the cruise line for more information about tipping the Porters.

     

    Best regards,

    Last time I checked, I thought the porters where employees of the port?

     

    Anyways, is tipping actually a requirement at Port Everglades?

     

    Thanks,

    Steve
