bringing wine on board

I'm not sure I discribed it correctly and we didn't encouranged him to do anything. He explained the corkage fees and winked and we got it and winked back. The entire cruise DH and I talked about it and didn't really know until the last night if we would be presented with a bill or not. We were prepared w/ a fat envelope if no bill arrived and it did not. I'm still happy the he got all the money as he was great.

 

But if the corkage fee include the tip I doubt it would be 15% since the we purchased the drinks privately. I guess you mean it would be 15% of $18.

 

The corkage fee is charged at the time the bottle is opened. Everytime we took bottles to dinner it was charged by the end of dinner. So he winked, he was being dishonest then and encouraging you to bypass paying HAL its dues.

 

Yes, I mean 15% of the $18 corkage fee could be the tip.
