UBD Tipping

[luvtravel88]

I know this is a loaded question, but hypothetically, if I were going to tip the waiters that serve us dinner on our balcony during UBD, how much would be an appropriate amount to tip? I was thinking $20 for both. If I do this, would I give one person the whole amount for them to split or give each person $10? Is $20 a reasonable amount?

I'm sure that you will get a variety of answers, but we also chose to tip $20 extra when we did the UBD. I gave $10 to each server as I wanted to make sure that there were no issues with sharing the tip. I'm sure that they received part of the money that I paid for the UBD, but for all the work that they did I thought this extra amount was well deserved.

Well . . . to me it's reasonable. Honestly though, when we did the UBD the waiters both disappeared while we were having coffee after dinner and we never saw them again, so they didn't get the tip that we were planning to give them. We were planning to tip each of them separately.

In 2009 (Ruby) we enjoyed the UBD. It was outa this world good. We had a head waiter set everything up then we had one female waiter who served both of us. I was so impressed with the service, I tipped her $40.00.....:):):)

We tipped $20 for them(?) to split. I guess I was totally oblivious, but I only remember one waiter after the initial setup.

What is UBD, please?

 

I did not know what UBD was... but just saw it was Ultimate Balcony Dining.... sorry I was not familiar with this acronym....

We usually tip $10-$20 per assistant. ;)

We were all set to tip $10 per person but they skedaddled away before we could tip & thank them. Unfortunately, we never saw them again the whole cruise but they were wonderful.
