bscd Posted August 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2017 we have booked to go on the eastern caribbean cruise 15/4/2018 our package included the classic drinks is the 18% charge already included in the price as we were told it was by our tour operator , but i thought i read somewhere each drink would have an 18% charge even if it was a drinks package.

wallie5446 Posted August 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2017 It is included up to the $9 per drink cap. Any thing over and the 18% on that amount is added. $9.50 drink, $9.00 covered, .50 cents + 18%= .09 = .59 cents for the drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted August 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The tour company was correct. If you order, say, a Coke the price is below what your package allows and there will be no further charge for gratuity. The only time you would see the 18% is if you order something more expensive than your package allows. Some other cruise lines do it differently so that you must pay a gratuity for every drink you order in the package. But Celebrity does not charge a separate gratuity for every drink in their packages. The gratuity is included in the price of the beverage package.
