Could someone please post what the requested tip for each service person is?

I am trying to get a good idea of how much cash we will need for the cruise. I have only been on 1 cruise and it was over 2.5 years ago. It was just DH and myself. This trip, we are taking the kids..so I would like to get an idea of what the tipping procedure is. I know it is based on PP. Can anyone remember? Again, TIA.

Go to Barb's site and look at "Tips on Tipping"

There seemed to be some useful instructions on tipping in that packet thingie they send from DCL - if you got it yet. Might want to take a look through that.

You can charge the tips to the room, so that you could choose to bring tip cash for just room service stuff.

You can also check your Ticket Booklet.....there's a page that gives you the suggested tip amount for the 3, 4 or 7 day cruise for your Head Server, Asst Server, Stateroom Hostess/Host, and Dinning Room Mgr.

These are only recommended amounts. DVC is the only cruise I've PERSONALLY seen that recommends tipping the assistant maître d’. Most recommend tipping the assistant maître d’ if they do something special for you. Of course they always seem to do something secial and we end up tipping them regardless.

Alas, not all cruise lines that encourage tipping recommend the same amounts, and the job titles of the crew may vary too. But most suggestions are in these ranges, per passenger per day: Cabin steward/stewardess/attendant, $3 to $4; waiter/server, $3 to $4; assistant waiter/busboy, $1.50 to $2.50; headwaiter/head server, 50 cents to $1.
