That gratuity to special dining was added in 2022. After we found that overall, dinner for two in Tuscan cost around $108 with our Elite discount, we decided to pass on all specialty dinning in the future except for Sushi on 5.
I was on that cruise and heard absolutely nothing about this. You would think people would have been talking about it on debarkation day. Strange. Anyway an amazing story.
You get a form from Guest Services and it requires the full name of the person you wish to tip. I have asked room stewards to write out their last names for me.
Those suites have only recently been classified "Aqua" sky suites. They cost more than the further toward the aft sky suites as the noise factor from OVC tends to be less the more forward the suites are. We have stayed in some of those suites prior to X raising the prices on them.
Yes, always been suites. Sky suites get all suite benefits including Luminae and the Retreat Sun deck and lounge. The sun deck on EQ wasn't really finished; no bar, no water feature, little shade. And up some steep steps.
Except for the change to suites deposits, are there other changes to booking on board, please? Will be back on Sept. and hope to book on board for extra OBC and lower deposit.
Your E documents should be available about 30 days before your sail date. You can print your luggage tags from that, usually next to last page. No need to print the other pages at all.
