Banana Benders

This is not to debate with you ???? Really If we get excellent service we do tip, But I'm not going to tip a waiter or bar person in restaurant for just doing their job. Royal and other cruise line prices haven't gone up since they introduced this measure, because they know that would be suicid with our laws

Australia has the best system for Cruise gratuities !!!! All cruise fare booked in Australia must include all expenses, Gratuities are classed as a "hidden cost" that is charged to your account. So when we cruise you don't see any Gratuities on your account, but if you wish to give extra that is up to you. We always tip the Drink waiters in the Diamond lounge as they don't receive any gratuities on the drinks they serve during happy hours 🍹🍹🍹

Love the new voucher system !! it great to be able to have a Guinness in the Irish Pub each day and a few drinks in dining room and theater with no extra cost. Saves seeing so many people staggering from lounges to dinner and theater spilling drinks everywhere. 🍷🍾 We are D+ and very rarely use all our 5 vouchers
