Guru Travel Tips of Making sense of Tiping Policy
At CheapFareGuru.com provides most accurate and complete Tips and Tricks for your Health and Safety during your Trip.
Tipping is a hot topic among cruisers. A few cruise lines have backed away from tipping, but have only confused the issue. Tipping is a traditional part of cruising. Just as in restaurants, it is a crucial part of the income of crew members on a ship. They are in the service industry and are serving you the passenger. Passenger tips make up, by far, the largest part of their income. While every cruise line will provide a guide to tipping, many have begun to add a set amount per day to the final bill. If you disagree with the amount, or want to tip more, less or not at all, you can make the adjustment when paying your final bill.
