How do I pay for things such as drinks, gift shop purchases, and optional shore excursions?
Cruise lines usually open a personal shipboard account for each passenger upon check-in. All onboard purchases are billed to this account and upon check-out each passenger receives a total which can then be paid with cash (dollars, euros or local currency usually accepted) or can be charged to a credit card. While the dollar is widely accepted, it is no longer the currency of choice in many places. Depending on your cruise itinerary, you should plan to bring along an ATM card to transact currency conversions. The fees are much lower than are traditional currency exchange transactions. Do check with your ATM card issuing back for the details and fees associated with your card.
