moondoggie Posted January 15, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Will Celebrity allow you to use your OBC to pay for auto-tips? I am reading that some lines won't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spearmint Posted January 15, 2010 #2 Share Posted January 15, 2010 As far as I know, it can. The OBC is simply shown as a subtraction to your on board account, and the auto-tipping will show up as an addition....I think on a per diem basis.

Cruisin Kay D Posted January 15, 2010 #3 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Gratuities now 11.50 pp per day and yes, OBC can be used for it. We are on Solstice now and have done that with ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eandj Posted January 15, 2010 #5 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Anything that shows up on your shipboard account... tips, excursions, drinks, shops, wine with dinner, internet, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted January 15, 2010 #6 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Hi Everyone ! I have to qualify the above comments. In MOST cases, the answer is yes. However, over the past few weeks, I've seen some TA's offering OBC's that clearly state they cannot be used for Gratuities or Casino Gaming. It seems this is something relatively new. While I am sure that most OBC's can still be used towards Gratuities, I no longer believe it's safe to say they can *definitely* be used. As always, I suggest checking with your TA or Celebrity. I hope this helps ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that it was $12.00 per day per person on our December cruise on the Equinox in AQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
