Hello,
We are sailing RC for the first time later this summer. We prepaid our cruise gratuities, and all purchased beverage packages which, if I remember correctly, had gratuities added at checkout. Additionally, we purchased some premium dining which also (if I am remembering it right) had gratuities added at checkout.
What are the current thoughts on tipping? I will feel super weird if I order a drink and don't tip. Or, are the bartenders used to a lot of people prepaying via a beverage package? We haven't cruised in over 20 years, so I'm honestly not sure how this is handled. I don't want to leave a tip off if it is expected, but I also don't want to double tip.
Thanks!
