Due to the success of a pilot program on Disney Magic® and positive feedback from Guests, Disney Cruise Line® is introducing the auto-application of gratuities on all Disney ships.
The process will create a more seamless experience for you by automatically charging folios on embarkation day with the suggested gratuity amounts for the Server, Assistant Server, Head Server and Stateroom Host/Hostess.
Below are the effective dates:
• Disney Dream – Date to be announced
• Disney Fantasy – April 21, 2012
• Disney Magic – Already in place
• Disney Wonder® – April 22, 2012
You can add pre-paid gratuities at the time of booking or when processing final payment. If the pre-paid gratuities have not been added prior to boarding, you will receive a letter upon check-in explaining the automatic charge to your on-board account. You still have the option to modify or add additional gratuity amounts, or pay in cash, by stopping by the Guest Services Desk on-board.
As a reminder, a 15% gratuity is automatically added to any bar, beverage, wine and deck-service receipt.
