Tips
Can anyone confirm if it’s true that the gratuity that’s automatically added to any type of drink bill does not go to the servers? We do not have a drink package and pay for drinks at dinner. I brought up the issue gratuity because I was just curious how they make tips on those that have the drink package vs “cash”
people that pay per dink. Then he explained to me that actually he doesn’t even get that 15% on my bill and that it goes to some type of pool that goes main lead to supervisin
I am not sure how MSC works but on other cruise lines they add 18% and then there is a line on the receipt for a tip. That is up to you if you tip more or not.
So if I'm working on a cruise ship and a person who seems naive about the tips they can tell you this tale of woe and you'll tip more because you feel bad for them.
