How to pay gratuities in advance after booking?

[mochacruiser]

Is there a way through the online site to pre-pay my gratuities after the booking has been completed?  Have a promotion on my credit card that expires soon and was thinking of going back and adding the pre-paid gratuities to get us part of the way to the requirement but not seeing any way to do it.   Thought I had done it before, but that may have been on NCL.

Not on the Web site that I am aware of but you can call, or have your TA call, and user your CC to pay them.

*IF* you booked directly on the Celebrity website, you can log in to your Cruise Planner, click on Manage Reservation, then Show Details if not already displayed, then click on Gratuities...should be highlighted in blue. Fill in CC info and you should be good to go.

 

Otherwise with TA as DaKahuna explains... 

 

ETA: the above assumes you booked a cruise only non-suite cruise...you may also need to wait a couple days if you *just* booked it because it takes X a few days to completely process your booking...it's a weird process...
