Here is information on what you need to know about the gratuities system onboard the Disney Cruise Line!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How much should you tip?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The recommended gratuity amount for Disney Cruise Line is $16 per person, per night for guests, including infants and children, and $27.25 per person, per night for guests in Concierge-level staterooms. These gratuity amounts cover your dining room server, assistant server, head server, and stateroom host\/hostess. For Concierge-level staterooms, it also includes the stateroom assistant host.<\/p>\n<p>If you receive exceptional service from any other crew members, you can choose to tip them additionally.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24472\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24472\" style=\"width: 324px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24472\" title=\"Babies!\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EllaBella.jpg\" alt=\"Tips on Tips: How Gratuities Work on Your Disney Cruise Line Vacation!\" width=\"324\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EllaBella.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EllaBella-413x550.jpg 413w, https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/EllaBella-113x150.jpg 113w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24472\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tips for infants?

This must be done at least three days prior to sailing. Otherwise, they are added to our onboard account before the end of the cruise.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How are gratuities charged?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Gratuities are charged to your onboard account automatically, but you have the option to adjust the amount based on your experience. If you wish to change the gratuity amount, you can do so by visiting the Guest Services desk on the ship prior to the end of your cruise.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What if you receive exceptional service?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-24480\" title=\"Towel Chillin'\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Towel-Chillin.jpg\" alt=\"Tips on Tips: How Gratuities Work on Your Disney Cruise Line Vacation!\" width=\"381\" height=\"485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Towel-Chillin.jpg 471w, https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Towel-Chillin-432x550.jpg 432w, https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/tmflblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Towel-Chillin-118x150.jpg 118w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 381px) 100vw, 381px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you receive exceptional service from a crew member, you may choose to provide them with an additional tip.

I've since returned over 85 times, sailed on the Disney Cruise Line 21 times, and visited Europe with Adventures by Disney nine times. Although I miss two of my sons immensely, I do like that they now live 45 minutes from Disneyland! Planning travel started as a hobby but became a full time \"job,\" and the past 18 years have given me the opportunity to make lots of magic!
