Hi all! This is our first cruise on MSC and wonder about how gratuities work with MSC. From what I read it looks like $14 per night per adult. Is this added to my account or do I pay directly? I also read that MSC doesn’t encourage tipping staff directly? On RC, Carnival and Princess I paid gratuities on my acct and also tipped more at the end as I saw fit. How does it work on MSC? Sailing on the new Seascape Dec 11 from Miami.
