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.
