Creator's Key Takeaways

I wish that every cruise line out there would just add the gratuities into the price of the cruise.

I have never not left a tip for my stateroom attendant. 188 cruises, never not left a tip.

Should you remove gratuities? I guess that's totally up to you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Add gratuities into the cruise fare to avoid separate charges.
Do not remove gratuities unless you had truly bad service.
Tip extra for good service if you wish, but it's not required.
