MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY
I am spending the day with my family and my parents at my brothers house. We'll be eating lots, drinking lots and playing lots of games with my son & his cousins.
Wishing you all a wonderful day too

Royal Caribbean increase gratuities charge
Royal Caribbean have announced this week that they are increasing their recommended gratuities charge on all sailings from 01 July 2011. They are now recommending $11.65 per person for a standard cabin and $13.90 per person in a suite.
Royal Caribbean do say that gratuities are at the discretion of the customer, however you do have to be on the ball if you don't wish to pay the set amount, as they are added to your on board account. You can have them removed from your account and tip individually but you have to do this on your first day on board.
You can also pre-pay the gratuities before you cruise and this would be my recommendation. The amount is fixed in sterling at £7.00 per person per day or £8.40 per person per day in suites. At today's exchange rate $11.65 is actually £7.41per person, so it is cheaper to prepay the gratuities. It also means that everything is paid up before the cruise and you then only need to find money for drinks.

More Royal Wedding Announcements
Having written about Cunard cruises and P&O's plans for the Royal Wedding, I thought it only fair to advise that Royal Caribbean, Celebrity and Azamara Cruises have also announced that they will be televising the wedding live across all of their ships. You will be able to watch in a choice of venues or in your stateroom.
On the two sailings that depart from Southampton, a little bit more is being offered - passengers on Celebrity Eclispe, which departs on the Wedding Day will be able to embark the ship and head for the theatre to watch the festivities before the ship sets sail. Whilst on both Eclipse and Royal Caribbean's Independence of the Sea's, champagne and flags will add to atmosphere.
I'll keep you posted as more cruise lines announce their plans.
