Normal
I was on the Paradise just a few weeks ago and we didn't use a credit card at all. After we boarded we went to the purser's desk and put down $700.00 in travelers checks, but a couple next to me only put down $100.00(not even enough to cover both their tips for the week mind you), but the purser didn't say a word. Also on the Paradise as soon as you put down your money your tips are deducted for the week not per day. He said some ships do it by day and some get the whole week over right off the bat.Have fun.
