Gratuities of $28.50/person/day are charged when you activate the Free at Sea drink and dining perks. As of March 2026, onboard beverage packages no longer work on Great Stirrup Cay (NCL's private island).

The Free at Sea 'free' perks come with a mandatory daily service charge of $28.50/person/day that is not optional. This can add $200+/person on a 7-night cruise.
