OYSTERBAY1 Posted September 6, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 6, 2017 What is the suggested tipping amounts at the pier? We will be having 3 full size suitcases For the guys that take the bags from the taxi and put then on the ship. We are sailing sept 13th. Are there non smoking nights in the casino? I have been given different answers on this from Hal. Does anyone know if they have cans on diet coke caffeine free on the ship?. One more question, when does Hal assign cabins? we booked a guaranteed Neptune suite and have not been assigned one yet. Thank you, john and laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted September 6, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Guarantee bookings can be assigned up to at the pier, but suites are commonly assigned about 20 or 25 days out. For the porters...couple bucks per bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted September 6, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Does anyone know if they have cans on diet coke caffeine free on the ship?. One more question, when does Hal assign cabins? I drink Caffeine Free Diet Coke and can usually get it easily aboard the ship. The only time it's a difficulty is when I am on a ship that is (and has been since restocking) in Europe. In that case they have either the Coke Lite or Coke Free. Cabins are generally assigned anywhere from 20 days before sailing right up until check-in. Most are assigned somewhere around the 10-days before mark, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted September 6, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Guarantee Staterooms: My experience has been 2 weeks out. But, I was offered a very reasonable up-sell once to a Neptune suite 48 hours before sailing. (I took it.) Tips at the pier for the porters: They seem to be happy with $1/bag when you arrive. If you use their services to get you through Customs/Immigration and to your transportation upon disembarkation, a more generous amount is deserved, in my opinion.
