Adding gratuities at embarkation???

[Greselda]

Noticed on our final bill that gratuities had not been added on. Can we add them at embarkation time??

 

Thanks...

Your final bill from the ship or just the final payment for the cruise??

 

If you have not sailed yet most cruise lines add the gratuities at the end of the cruise or some add them daily to your ship board account

 

Ask your TA what the policy is of the cruise line you are sailing on.

As noted, gratuities will not appear on your final payment. Rather they can be added to your shipboard account.

Yes, on most lines you can add the tips to your account.

Most ships they are automatically added to your shipboard account and will be paid by you on the on board account bill you get at the end of your cruise.

Thanks sooooo much for all your replies;)

 

We will be sailing on October 3rd this year, and I thought that I had checked the box for including our gratuities in our final payment for the cruise....I guess not:rolleyes: I will make a point of doing so when we are at the counter checking in.

 

We always leave the auto tips in place and then if we find someone that goes out of their way to make the cruise even more enjoyable for us personally, we add that in an envelope to them at the end of the cruise.

 

Thanks again, you CC'ers are the best:D
