Inspiration Cruise- Staff members to find and make good with?

[Willbe]

I know on a cruise everything is inventoried and accounted for, but is there anyone to find for perks? If free drinks, any bartenders open minded for nice tips? Staff members who if treated very well will return the favor?

 

I'm sure names will want to stay a secret due to cruise lines viewing these boards, msg me with any info

 

I know when i went to the bahamas for spring break some members loved nice tips and being friendly at all times and we def had alot of perks because of it

 

let me know, thanks in advance

This guy didn’t get us any free drinks. But he did make our cruise. His name was Denton from Jamaica. He was our head waiter in the MDR. He asked my name the 1st night, and did not forget it. I would see him during the day and he would always say "Hey Mr. Cory". He had an awesome personality and on top of that, he was friggin hilarious. He made it hard to get through dinner without laughing. Stuff like that makes staff members memorable to us, not free “perks”

thank you, good to know! free drinks is always good, but thats also what im looking for. i've met a fair share of staff at resorts and such who seem to hate there job, and even laughs will make the trip better- he will get great tips. im not shy about being generous, im that guy. u treat me right, ill treat u right, and in those cases, money talks. lol. is there a way to request denton in the MDR? And being new, ill assume MDR stands for Main Dinning Room...... still havent got all the acronyms down yet. Thanks again though!

Get to know the bar tender as they are the ones to make the drinks. While you may not get a free drink, they can become stronger.

 

In the casino, the pit bosses and the Casino Host are the ones who can comp' you a drink. Sometimes it depends on the amount that you are playing or in my case, knowing them from previous cruises. It also helps to be tipping the dealer as the pit boss appreciates this.
