I have to laugh, be comfortable just wear sweat pants and crocs to the dining room. Yet the sweat pants and crocs never make the glossy cruise brochures or the commercials on television
Here’s an idea - Get to the pier, remove tips and you can take care of your cabin and eat in the Lido. Sounds like exclusion right, but is it?
There’s Club Orange
The renting of cabanas
Joining the thermal spa for the week.
i can’t do any of these things without paying extra.
1. Because you’re cheap
2. Because you lost too much in the casino
3. Because you spent too much on booze
4. Because you’re a “New Cruiser” who saved all year for this cruise. (This is the newest batch of BS I’ve read recently)
5. Because you had unrealistic expectations that could never be met.
Yes I have witnessed this several times on cruises. Large party next to us, having this poor waiter jump through a million hoops every evening then on the last night they do a no show. Yes I’m sure I’ll hear “How Do You Know They Didn’t Tip him Earlier?”
Because the waiters face told the story.
if you want to remove the tips, do it at the pier
After that there’s no turning back. If the passenger gets dirty looks all trip, who cares?
Adjust grats?
what percentage up the grats 1%?
why would one adjust the grats lower?
Everything was going swimmingly but the dude in the Lido burnt my toast, so now I must stand on line and “Adjust” the gratuities? Sounds weird
Cruiser A - Leaves the tips in place is low maintenance and has little to no needs.
Cruiser B - Removes the tips. They want ice five times a day, towel animals, chocolates on pillows, orders three entrees and four desserts.
The tip removers don’t tip the crew members individually. Total BS
I have a question. Why aren’t the tip removers doing it the second they arrive at the pier?
why are they waiting till the last day?
please somebody answer this
Using that logic
If your wallet falls out of your pocket on the gangway, a fellow passenger should scoop it up and keep all the money. His cruise, airfare, and hotel have all gone up. He’ll go to any length to recoup some of his money
I just crunched the numbers. After eliminating cabins by the elevators, cabins under the buffet , cabins below the pool, cabins by the propellers, cabins near the anchor, cabins under the theater,and creaky cabins. There is only 9 available cabins on the entire ship
