I have just come back from the Southern Caribbean cruise sailing on the Norwegian Spirit. First of all I would like to say a big thank you to all the staff on the ship. They did make my cruise worth while.Now onto the tipping. I dont begrudge the $10 per person auto gratuity that was all well and good for the service we received. When we had room service we gave extra. I did begrudge was the extra 15% on the bar bill and 15% on a bottle of wine the cheapest bottle being $29.00 when if effect the actual bottle to buy was $8.00 and the $4.50 for a bottle pf evian water now that was a rip off.I do agree that tipping for a good service is a must. I did ask staff if they actually got anything for the auto gratuity and did did say that they did (How much I dont know). My room maid made out that they never saw any of it but I am not sure.
