luv2ndhalf Posted October 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 5, 2022 We will be sailing on b2b cruises…. Australia and New Zealand. The ship sails from Sydney- Our gratuities are already prepaid, but we always tip extra. Which currency should we use? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mom says Posted October 5, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 5, 2022 If the ship will be sailing out of Sydney for a whole after your cruise, then tip in Aussie dollars if you have them. The crew will no doubt get some shore time or want to do some shopping there. But if it's close to repositioning, then USD. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted October 5, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Just a quick comment -- my understanding is that the crew sundry store(on the ship) is priced in US dollars so even if the ship will be out of US waters they will be able to use at least some US dollars. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jelayne Posted October 5, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 5, 2022 The currency on the ship is USD. They may be able to use AUD, if they get time off to go ashore and if need to buy something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have left over Australian or New Zealand money use that first - much cheaper than changing it back. After that switch to 💲 , it makes no difference to the crew as the ship will change any currency for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICANTWAITTOCRUISE Posted October 6, 2022 #9 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I was wondering the same thing. What currency should we tip the porters at the Barcelona dock? I am assuming euros? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineoclock Posted October 6, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 6, 2022 When I have used wheelchair at the airport & tried to tip they haven’t accepted it. If you are going to tip then do so in Euros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
