Tip Question

[Noreen411]

Hi

 

A quick tipping question. I know Royal Caribbean provides the list of the suggested tip amounts per person.

 

If you have a single person in a cabin, do you need to double those tips?

Or is it still a per person amount?

 

I'm assuming that for the waiter, maitre D types it won't make a difference because the table is still full. But what about the cabin attendant. He's cleaning the room and probably would have to do the same cleaning even if it was 2 or more people. Maybe less mess with just 1 person, but I don't want to short change anyone.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

Thank you

All of the tip amounts are per person, regardless of whether you're travelling alone or with other people.

I would think you would tip for just the 1 person.....we had a single cruiser with us last year in his own cabin and that is what he did too.

I have read several posts on this message board about singles who tip extra (without specifying double) when they cruise by themselves.

 

I have only cruised solo once, and I did tip well above one person's "required" tip amount, but she was so wonderful - as almost ALL of our cabin attendants have been. I wasn't doing it consciously to "make up for a missing person", but Lucian made out quite well!

Tip per person the same as if there is 4 in a cabin.:)

I have three people in a cabin. We still tip per person. I am sure that it all evens out. However great service deserves recognition.
