Related to getting cash, where is the best place to break bills if you need the right denominations for tipping?  Casino?  Guest Services?

Casino or Guest Services. Heck, the bars each have a tip jar you can ask if they can break a bill with.

While I trust Royal, I'd question who is servicing the ATM machine.  Sure in an emergency, I would have to use the ATM, but it is probably best to bring cash along with you.  I personally treae the ship ATM like I would with the random ATM you'd see on the street, chained to a pole 🙂

 

If you know you are going to need some cash, I'd suggest that you just bring it with you so you don't run the chance of the ATM being broken/empty or a policy change in the casino that prevents you from getting the cash.   You can then use the casino/atm as a "backup option" if you need additional cash.

 

Also remember that the ship is mostly cashless, so you probably won't need as much as you think.  We always take cash with us for additional tips, casino play, and port purchases, and every time we end up with too much and re-deposit it at home.

I had to use the ATM on the Navigator of the Seas. The RC fee was $6.50. Plus my own personal bank fee of $2

You can use the Casino to avoid the fees by going to a slot machine and transferring credit as a room charge and then cashing out immediately.  They will bill your Creditcard on file, as an "Entertainment Fee", so it is not seen as a cash advance by most credit cards.  I do this towards the end of the trip to get cash for tipping the stateroom attendant and MDR staff.  Bonus -- I collect points on my card too by doing it this way because it is seen as a purchase.
