Jeff618 Posted June 22, 2022 Report Share Posted June 22, 2022 Sorry if this has previously been answered, but if so I can't find it. We have purchased the deluxe drink package to have all of our drinks prepaid. Does this include gratuities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a line on the receipt for a tip. I may be overly generous but I suppose it just depends on how often they bring you a drink.

When you made the purchase in the cruise planner you prepaid your gratuities for the drink package. When you get a drink they may hand you a receipt and you can choose to add an additional tip, but you are not obligated to do so. While we get the refreshment package, we do not tip on each drink, but since we tend to frequent the same locations you get to know the bartenders and at the end of the trip we may tip extra for great service. For me, it’s mostly the cafe promenade since I drink far too much coffee. also, note that gratuities for the cruise (~$14 a day per person?) are different than the tips on the drink package. ultimate_ed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On on our last cruise, the bartenders at Schooner didn't need to see our Sea Pass card after the 2nd day. Not sure that is a good thing!

They are extensively trained to have great memories as a part of their employment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
