Most are $9 or $10 pp per day so I would go down and ask it to be
removed and then tip the people you feel you want to tip. that is that!

Celebrity is now charging more as you can see in a statement from their
website below. If Clint was charges $12/day, he was in Concierge Class
or AquaClass.

"For your convenience, we will automatically add gratuities for your
restaurant and stateroom services to your onboard Seapass account on a
daily basis in the following amounts, which may be adjusted at your
discretion: $11.50 per person per day for guests in staterooms ($12.00
per person per day for guests in Concierge Class and AquaClass
staterooms and $15.00 per person per day for guests in Suites)."

Just do like some folk. Pick a fight with the cabin attendant and
waiter. That alone saves you $7/day. The same thing can be done with
the head waiter and assistant waiter. Pick enough fights and the
tipping reverses: they pay YOU when you get off the ship.

Elected officials should wear
uniforms like NASCAR drivers.
That way it would be easier to
identify their corporate sponsors.
