  1. That is a bounce back offer plus a glitch. Log out and back in. You aren't getting any new casino offers until May 7th
  2. They will get that share whether they make the drink or not
  3. The real savings for most people is what they save in grats by buying CHEERS.
  4. If I have CHEERS, I pay $10.79 per day for gratuities on the package total. If I pay for each drink individually at Alchemy for my 5 Peach Cosmos, I am paying $12.60 in tips.
  5. Not 18% per drink that is received by the person making the drink.
  6. Funny how the corporate talking points from those executives who don't get tips are always "they are just grateful for anything".
  7. The only drinks with the 18% are those charged to the S&S individually.
  8. There is a difference in non cruise line excursions that are allowed to operate at pots and ones kept outside the port area. The further the operator is away from the ship, the more caution.
  9. The story that was all over the news this year was non cruise line excursions. https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Travel/cruise-line-contact-stranded-passengers-traveled-africa-rejoin/story?id=108741892
  10. There is at Terminal F. People are sorted if boarding has not begin. This is the Diamond Only area. Boarding passes are checked.
  11. Bartenders like all service industry professionals are prone to stereotypes (which are stereotypes for a reason). They aren't surprised by those who snap their fingers and order unusual (tiktok) drinks that don't tip. They aren't surprised when people tip big to pretty or charming servers. They are surprised when someone they are decided wasn't a tipper turns out to be a good tipper.
  12. Yes, they do. The add on tips and cash is counted separately by the bartenders every night before turning them in. Those amounts come back to those servers.
  13. He is spouting publicity BS. He wrote this https://crew-center.com/carnivals-senior-cruise-director-we-need-look-closely-removing-crew-gratuities but on FB, he soft balls people who pulls tips.
  14. Yes, Terminal F has separate areas to wait if you arrive before boarding starts.
  15. I have gotten final comps at the last night dinner.
  16. Help you find a backpack that you lost last year? Reward amount?
  17. You get the offers from Carnival because you get the offers from Ballys. You get the offers from Ballys because you get the offers from Carnival. Life of Circle. Casinos are about possibilities. We play because there is a possibility we could win. Casinos give out offers because there is the possibility we will play. Guess who is right more?
  18. Debarkation chaos is due to the cruise director so your feelings were correct.
  19. Yeah, the crew member had to find it, carry it out of their area during the busiest part of their week through the ship, past hordes of guests into the crew area, full of crew, to their shared cabin, removed the "valuables", then dispose of the backpack and return to their work area, all without being noticed.
  20. Depends on how many cabins were used last cruise and speed of floor supervisor to check.
