    A: The standard gratuity is typically $10-$15 USD per person, per day.

    Most luxury cruise lines (like Victoria Cruises, Sanctuary Yangzi, or Century Cruises) will either add this amount automatically to your onboard account or strongly suggest it as a daily rate. It is often presented as a single, pooled tip for the entire crew, distributed among the service staff, cabin attendants, and dining room team. For exceptional service, additional tips for specific staff (e.g., your butler or guide) are always appreciated in cash (small USD bills or RMB).
