Anytime dining question

[MikeNKim]

We always pick early dining but not available for our cruise this time.

 

our options are late….yuck and anytime.  🙂

 

I checked Carnivals FAQ and I can’t find the answer.    I thought I remember hearing that if you use anytime dining you have to pre-pay your gratuity?   Is this correct?

 

thank you

The single time we did YTD we did not prepay gratuities.

nope. I think RCI used to do that but they have stopped that as well.

On my current booking, I have anytime dining selected. I can select prepaid gratuity or take it back off. It gives me the option either way. For the record, I have never read about that anywhere that I can remember.

No, it is not required to prepay the gratuities. I always choose your time dining because I'm not always hungry at the same time every day and have only prepaid the gratuities about half the time, and even then it's because I want to pay as much as I can beforehand for budgeting reasons.

Thank you all for the quick responses.

 

I never thought a cruise in Oct would already have early dining full.

 

Have a great day all
