Tips on Carnival - Questions

We are going on a trip Jan 2 for 3 days on Fascination. This is our first
time. How do we handle tips?

Should we carry a lot of dollar bills to tip?
Should we opt for NOT having automatic tips charges on our ship card?
How do we tip for cabin service etc?


I agree with the others who have advised you to go with automatic
tipping. However you should have some extra cash on hand in order to
tip beyond the automatic amount for extra special service. The dollar
bills (which you can always get at the pursor's desk or the casino) will
come in very handy for cabin service tips. I usally tip $1.00 for a pot
of coffee and more if we are ordering a bunch of stuff. Have a ball.
