prepaid gratuities

[dvdisney]

Can you set up prepaid gratuities with DCL? Is it done through the TA or the website?

Thank you!!!

If you booked thru a TA, all financial transactions must go thru the TA.

 

Yes, you can pre-pay the standard tips. Quick and easy.

The standard tips are $12 per guest per night of cruise. If you do NOTHING, this amount will be applied to your KTTW charges. You will get tip envelopes in your cabin on the last full day along with coupons indicating that your tips were charged to your account. The coupons are perforated--1/2 goes in the envelope which you give to the appropriate crew, the other 1/2 is for you records.

 

You can go to Guest Services and increase or decrease the tip amounts. You can also add cash to the envelope as a way to increase tips if desired. You can go to GS and completely remove the charged tips and then place cash in the envelope.

 

If you pre-pay, it is exactly the same as if you did nothing (coupons) except that your account will reflect the advance payment.

 

The crew never knows whether you paid in advance or not...or whether you increased or decreased tips until they get the coupon vouchers on the last night.
