After a pilot program on the Disney Magic Disney Cruise Line is introducing the auto-application of gratuities on all Disney ships. Folios will be charged on embarkation day with the suggested gratuity amounts for the Server, Assistant Server, Head Server and Stateroom Host/Hostess.
Below are the effective dates:
- Disney Dream – Date to be announced
- Disney Fantasy – April 21, 2012
- Disney Magic – Already in place
- Disney Wonder – April 22, 2012
Guests can add pre-paid gratuities at the time of booking or when processing final payment. If the pre-paid gratuities have not been added prior to boarding, guests will receive a letter upon check-in explaining the automatic charge to their onboard account. Guests still have the option to modify or add additional gratuity amounts, or pay in cash, by stopping by the Guest Services Desk onboard.
