Cruise Guests Criticize Surprise Tip Increase

Passengers of Celebrity Cruises are protesting a recent increase in automatic gratuity charges, which now range from $19.50 to $24.50 per person per day, depending on the stateroom category. The rise, effective immediately, has prompted some guests to opt out of the automatic tips and give cash directly to crew members, citing concerns over short notice and the desire to ensure workers receive the full gratuity. While some support the increase, many criticize the timing and believe gratuities should be included in the total fare.
