Creator's Key Takeaways

Do cruise ship companies actually give the tip money we pay in gratuities to the crew

The fact that Cruise Line companies won't answer the question in a direct way only leads to more suspicion

The vast majority of the gratuities are equally divided between cabin attendant and the dining room team

Once again we don't have any real specifics from Mr hee's answer therefore it seems that speculation will only grow

Creator's Tips & Advice

Have Guest Services take tips off your bill and directly hand cash to your room attendant and main dining room staff
