This eliminates the need to personally distribute the tips at the end of the voyage. Recognizing that tipping is purely a personal matter, you are welcome to adjust the total amount at any time prior to the end of the cruise by visiting the Information Desk on the Main Deck. A 15% gratuity is already included in bar tabs, beauty salon, and spa services. Other staff may be tipped as services are rendered (example: if you order room service, its customary to tip a dollar or two.). Do I Need A Passport? If you are a US citizen you do not need a passport for this sailing. The rules change in 2007, however.
