leisuretraveler223 Posted April 4, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I don't believe they do. They charge more for a suite. Bigger room, more details to attend to.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eslader Posted April 4, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The tip is 13 bucks a day for all rooms except suites, which are $16. Where are you getting the information that ocean view rooms pay more in tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul65 Posted April 4, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Why do RC charge more for tips if have an ocean view upwards than an interior? Surely do same amount of work They only charge more for tips if you have a full suite, which is significantly larger than a standard cabin and includes some additional services.

foxgoodrich Posted April 4, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 4, 2016 There's no difference in recommended tips for an Oceanview vs an Interior cabin, or for a balcony - all of those are considered 'standard' staterooms. The higher rate you saw is what's recommended for Suites. Here's what the RC website says: Effective on cruises departing on or after May 1, 2016, Royal Caribbean will automatically add a $13.50 USD gratuity for standard staterooms, $16.50 USD for Suite guests, to each guest's SeaPass® account on a daily basis.

Judy that is great. they work hard for their tips. and it should say----"ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, FOR ANY REASON, TRY WHAT YOU MAY BUT THEY WILL NOT BE REMOVED" if you can afford to cruise, you can afford the tips.
