Tips - $10 per day per person - this is optional - you can refuse to tip if you choose to...although I dont advise it b/c the workers dont get paid that well at all

Port fees - $75+ per person - this is usually included in the total cost of the cruise - as a 3x cruiser this has never been a seperate fee for me

Alcoholic beverages $4-12 each - as you can guess this is optional...there is usualy a formal dinner party on the ship that lasts about 4 hours where you can get free alcohol...this is the only time alcohol is free


Sodas not during a meal $1.75 per can - purchase soda program at 5-7 per day per person - this is only on royal caribbean- i have been on carnival 3x and non alcoholic drinks are free 24 hours a day either through room service (also free) or by going to one of the many bars, dining rooms or casual resturants

Professional photos $20+ per sheet - this is accurate pricing but again this is optional...i mean they will take your picture for free but nothing says you have to buy it
