Cruise Ship Travel Tip #23 - Tips

[MrNashster]

Whos fault is it that they don't get paid properly??? The cruise line slugs you enough for the ticket, surely they can afford to pay their staff proprerly?? After all, the major cruise lines purchase a bottle of Corona Beer for 37 cents and sell it for 6-7 dollars?? Its always the passenger that cops it....

I have always wanted to go on a cruise thanks for all the tips Liesel. Travel Wish TV always seems to have something to say about anything vacation related.

Iv been on a few carnival cruises, the tips are taken out ahead of time. sometimes I cancel the sit down diner tips becuse we generally go for the buffet.

I think the white fits better but of course black is not bad at all. And what did you say ?

[marlin187]

White looks nice.

Whats that women talking about 50c tips and a couple of dollars room sevice i used to be a cabin steward and recieve on average between $30 and $50 dollars per room prior to embarkations and that was for taking care of 12 cabins,We,d work together and share our tips getting around $280 a trip,even better on carribean cruises.

That was on the QE2 mind you.Bon Voyage.

"the crew staff work often 6months at a time so please dont thank them" your pretty stupid woman maybe a little thought prior to filming wouldnt have been a bad idea

been working for Princess Cruises couple years ago; thank you doesn't really matter if you are working 11 - 16 hours a day. You become a robot and don't really care that much for appreciacion. Sounds strange but that's the way it is especially if you concider the real length of contracts - my all four contracts were longer than 8 months, believe it or not.

Oh, and before you give a tip to head waiter or maitre' de you should realize that the guy earns around $2000 a week, at least on my vessels they didn't go below this amount. So maybe find somebody who had been working hard to make your holiday this special time but at the same time doesn't earn more than you do ;)

@8stewiegriffin like i give a flying fuck.
