Cruise ship gratuities are something that is not very prominently stated on cruise line websites and brochures. But they are a factor to weigh in when choosing a cruise with a cruise line. One has to read the fine print.
Royal Caribbean has raised their gratuity rates as of November 1.
According to MSM:
Gratuities have always been a hot topic in the cruise industry. Royal Caribbean is increasing its automatic gratuities. Here is everything you need to know.
Starting November 1, 2024, the cruise line will increase its automatic gratuity rate by $0.50 per person per day. Previously, the gratuity amount was $20.50 per person per day for suite passengers and $18.00 per person per day for non-suite passengers, which includes inside staterooms, balcony staterooms, ocean view staterooms, and junior suites.
Following the increase, the gratuity for suite passengers will become $21.00 per person per day, while the gratuity for non-suite passengers will be raised to $18.50 per person per day. However, passengers who have already booked their cruises have the option to lock in the old gratuity rate by prepaying before November 1, 2024.
