Perfect Day Getaway Cruise

WiFi is priced per device, not per person. A family of four with phones and tablets can easily spend $100+/day. Pre-purchasing saves up to 30%.

An 18% gratuity is added on top of the drink package price at checkout. On a 7-night cruise this can add $50-80+ per person that wasn't in the advertised price.

Gratuities are automatically added to your onboard account. An additional 18% gratuity is also applied to all beverage, specialty dining, and room service purchases; 20% for spa services.

Only continental breakfast is truly free. A cooked American breakfast or any lunch/dinner order costs $7.95+tip per delivery. Grand Suite and above get free 24-hour room service.

An 18% gratuity is automatically added to all specialty dining charges on top of the menu price.

Automatic gratuities of $18.50/day (standard) or $21.00/day (suites) per person are charged daily to your onboard account. You can adjust at Guest Services but it is strongly discouraged.

Promotional 'free' perks (WiFi, drinks) are often bundled into a higher cruise fare rather than truly free. Always compare the promo fare against the base fare plus buying add-ons separately.

Royal Caribbean can increase gratuity rates at any time before sailing. Rates have risen multiple times in recent years, most recently in 2024.

An 18% gratuity is auto-added to all onboard purchases including drinks, specialty dining, room service, and minibar. Spa purchases have a 20% auto-gratuity.
