Disney Cruise Line has today increased the gratuities guests pay for service received onboard their ships. The gratuities cover your dining room server, dining room assistant server, dining room head server, and stateroom host. The cost previously was $14.50 per guest, per night, but that has now been increased to $16 per guest, per night. Guests can still tip more if they desire either by leaving cash in with the envelopes given at the end of your cruise or at guest services. If you have a cruise already booked and have pre-paid gratuities, it appears you will only be charged the previous $14.50 rate, and it will not increase.
It is customary to give gratuities in recognition of exceptional service, which you'll receive in abundance aboard the ship. We recommend a gratuity amount of $16.00 USD per night, per stateroom Guest, including infants and children.
Guests staying in Concierge Staterooms and Suites gratuity has also increased from $23.50 per guest, per night, to $27.25 USD per guest, per night.
