Gratuities on Sign and Sail

[jennraycruise]

Do they automatically add the Gratuities to your sign and sail card?? Just wondering I am trying to budget for this vacation and was wondering what this policy is? Any assistance on this is appreciated. Thanks,
Jennifer

YES, THEY DO. BUT, I ALWAYS TIP EXTRA TO THE PERSON THEMSELVES. THEY DO A FABULOUS JOB AND MAKE YOUR VACATION SO STRESS FREE. HAVE A WONDERFUL TRIP.

Yes, they include $40 per person. You can tell them to take it off the bill, and give the tips yourself in cash. I asked one of the people who served us and they stated they would prefer it that way, cash in hand (although they were not supposed to tell cruisers. I don't know if they have to pay taxes on income as we do.
