    Who are you cruising with? Princess and Carnival have auto-tipping. It's done automatically on your credit card. On RCCL if you choose My time dining it's required upfront. You can pay the tip upfront.

    So yes, the tip can be done in a way that you won't forget.

    Happy cruisin'

    Don't know which cruise line you're going with, but most will allow you to pre-pay the gratuities before your cruise or you can have them automatically charged to your onboard account, which in turn will be charged to you credit/debit card.

    Here is a great tipping calculation site:

    Cruise Tip Calculator - Your automated guide to Cruise Tips

    Carnival is $10 per day, per person (including children). Hope this helps

    Sorry, No. Carnival automatically charges your on board account $10pp/day.

    If I don't know the answer I'm fairly certain I can find it.

    Jen, to clarify...The $10 per day is all that is charged to your account. The PP part is the people in the cabin, not the folks who are getting tips. Those folks are sharing the $10 per day that is charged to your onboard account.

    For a 7 day cruise your total tip amount would be $70.

    Tipping is recommended, so you could pay as much as you did the last time, or the recommended amount, plus a bit extra. Simply let your conscience be your guide. The recommended amount will be added to your account.
