Fred Olsen Cruise Lines have introduced a change in their tipping policy. Traditionally passengers have tipped at the end of the cruise, but after a questionaire with past guests it was found that some people find this a little embarrassing, so in response to this Fred Olsen Cruise Line will automatically add the grautity to the guests onboard account. This is a set charge of £4 per adult per day and will be shared between the respective Cabin Stewardess and Restaurant Waiters.
This charge can be altered by visiting the pursers office.
This has certainely caused a lot of debate on our cruise forum, if you have any thoughts on this it would be great to hear from you.
