POTATOHEAD Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Who do these go to? My kids just fill up their mug at the Freestyle machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshleyDillo Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 You can get soda anywhere, not just limited to the machines. There are also staff who maintain and refill those machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseGus Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 The gratuities for all beverage purchases, ala carte or package purchase go into a common pool for those that work beverage services, whether bartender, bar server or bar back worker. I'm pretty sure your position also determines what size your share of the pool is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveling Mike Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 You need to remember that Gratuities do not go to your cabin Stewart, waiter, assistant waiter. They go into a pool and split according to a formula. I asked my waiter on my last cruise and he said the gratuities that are on my cruise account would go into the pool. The cash I gave him on the last day would be split between him and the assistant waiter. This is one of the reasons I pay the base gratuities and then give some extra cash to the people that take care of me. KristiZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHaga Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 There is a gratuities charge everytime one fills up a cup at the soda machines when you have a soda package? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you only pay the gratuity once, at the time of purchasing the drink package MrHaga 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
