id=\"Disney_Tipping\"><\/span>Disney Tipping<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Florida labor laws and Disney&#8217;s contracts with labor unions will play into our discussions here. Also while at Disney World, the employees that you encounter are a mix of Disney cast members and employees of companies that Disney contracts with (Operating Participants) to provide services. Where appropriate I&#8217;ll mention non-Disney employees.<\/p>\n<p>In Florida as elsewhere in the US certain employees are paid as tipped workers and are paid a significantly lower hourly wage in the anticipation that they will be tipped properly.<\/p>\n<p>Also, per union rules, there are situations (not all applicable here) where tipped employees receive a mandatory, set tip from Disney based on work that they perform for a guest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A note about non-tipped Disney employees.<\/strong> Non-tipped Disney cast members are prohibited from accepting tips. There are some descriptions online that say they are required to refuse a tip a certain number of times (3 or 4) before they can finally accept. I&#8217;m not sure of the validity of this.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of tipping what you can and should do is help them with their annual appraisal which are greatly affected by guest complements. An official compliment from you improves their chances for advancement or transfers.<\/p>\n<p>To compliment a cast member:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use the My Disney Experience App to give them a complement<\/li>\n<li>Pick up a comment card at Guest Relations in the theme parks (or get some as you enter so you can fill them out as you go)<\/li>\n<li>email: wdw.guest.communications@disneyworld.com<\/li>\n<li>Write to: Walt Disney World Guest Communications, PO Box 10040, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830-0040<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Include the cast member&#8217;s name and hometown (from their name tag), as well as where they were working, the date, and how they helped you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> Just ask them if you can snap a pic of their name tag for a positive guest comment. This 1. keeps you from having to try to remember the info or find something to write it on, and 2. cast members who happen to forget their name tag will wear one of the communal abandoned name tags that hang around their location, so if they know you want to give them a compliment they will offer their actual info.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to send a cast member compliment via the My Disney Experience app!<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24139\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24139\" class=\"wp-image-24139\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment.jpg\" alt=\"Tipping at Walt Disney World and Shades of Green\" width=\"800\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment-600x325.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment-800x433.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/My-Disney-Experience-Cast-Member-Compliment-740x400.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-24139\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My Disney Experience Cast Member Compliment<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I your app, click the menu button (some incorrectly call this the hamburger button) in the bottom right.

As with any bus type shuttle service, if the driver assists you with loading and unloading your baggage a dollar or 2 per bag (depending on size and weight) is appropriate. If you have more than carry-on this will be the case. If the driver is exceptionally friendly or helpful in general a couple extra bucks would also be appropriate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Airport Limos (Non-Disney)<\/strong> &#8211; Check with your limo company to see if the driver tip is included in your fare.

If they have to install car seats for you or assist with loading luggage\/packages\/strollers etc. you should add a few dollars more. You can tip after the ride through the Lyft app (they will get it in their next week&#8217;s check) or cash is always welcome.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Uber\/Lyft<\/strong> &#8211; If by chance you get a friendly Lyft or Uber driver a buck or 2 is probably appropriate for around property.

Extra for very heavy or voluminous jobs.<\/p>\n<p>For luggage service where you are not present of i.e. room luggage pickup and delivery, Disney Cruise Line transfers, room or resort transfers, per union contract Disney tips the cast member for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maid Service<\/strong> -While technically not tipped employees, many people do tip their maid. Keep in mind that these individuals are in your room amongst your things so you want them in a good mood (enough said?). The standard is a dollar per person staying in the room per night. I tip extra on my check out morning due to the extra work involved.<\/p>\n<p>You can leave the tip on the bed\/pillow or nightstand so the maid will know it is for them to take, or some Disney travelers pre-make decorated\/labeled envelopes to place the tips in each day.<\/p>\n<p>Tips would not be required for days you leave the Room Occupied sign on the door or that Disney does not offer service.<\/p>\n<p>Note: after the 2017 Las Vegas terror shooting incident, Disney switched from Do Not Disturb signs to Room Occupied signs. The implication of the switch being that a Disney cast member will enter every guest room daily (to look for anything untoward) the DND prevented this. Maids will still knock and announce themselves prior to entry and will empty the trash while making sure everything is OK.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spa Services<\/strong> &#8211; 15% to 20% is appropriate for these services, just like at home.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dining\"><\/span>Dining<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Dining.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15865\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Dining.jpg\" alt=\"Tipping at Disney World - Dining\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Dining.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Dining-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Dining-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Dining-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When doing some prep reading for this post I ran across several instances of authors emphasizing that a 15% tip for table service dining was no longer appropriate, that 18% &#8211; 20% was the new standard. This shocked me as I&#8217;ve thought for my entire adult life that the standard was 18% &#8211; 20%. I don&#8217;t think it has been 15% since back in the 70&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Several times over the years I&#8217;ve had service so phenomenal at Disney that I&#8217;ve tipped well over 20%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Table Service Meals<\/strong> &#8211; Tip 18% &#8211; 20% of the full bill before any discounts are deducted for good to very good service. Exceptional service should be tipped more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disney Dining Plan\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; Tips are not included in the Disney Dining Plan. At table service locations you&#8217;ll need to tip as mentioned just above. The regular full meal cost will be provided for reference on your receipt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buffet Meals<\/strong> &#8211; I used to fall into the group of people who thought that since your server at a buffet is only serving your drink, that the tip percentage should be lower. But I&#8217;ve been persuaded otherwise. Keep in mind all of the extra plate clearing that your served has to do, what with your multiple trips to the buffet. 18% &#8211; 20% of the full bill before any discounts are deducted is appropriate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Automatically Added Tips<\/strong> &#8211; \u00a0Disney World will automatically add an 18% tip to your full bill under the following circumstances:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Parties of 6 or more (including all children), even if you split the check or are seated at separate tables (unless the tables do separate checks)<\/li>\n<li>Prepaid\u00a0restaurants and dinner shows including: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/walt-disney-world-theme-parks\/magic-kingdom\/cinderellas-royal-table\/\">Cinderella\u2019s Royal Table<\/a>, Hoop Dee Doo Revue, and Mickey\u2019s Backyard BBQ<\/li>\n<li>Private Dining (room service) plus a $3 delivery fee<\/li>\n<li>Pizza Delivery<\/li>\n<li>Mobile Golf Cart sales on the course<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Be sure not to double tip in these instances. But if exceptional service is received something extra is appropriate on top of the 18%.<\/p>\n<p><em>I know that having the tip added to your bill automatically angers some folks. And for me the key issue is, what if the service was really bad (not something you&#8217;ll likely encounter at Disney)? I have had this happen at non Disney locations. The restaurant adds the tip hoping you think it is something they can really do (they add it due to the increased workload for larger parties) but it is your money and they cannot legally determine for you if and how much you will tip. In cases where I&#8217;ve had bad service (off Disney property) and an automatic tip was added, there is always a fill in the blank tip line on the bill (where you normally do the tip). You can write a negative number there and reduce the automatic tip by the amount desired, adjusting the overall total down.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bars and Lounges<\/strong> &#8211; Tip $1 to $3 per drink depending on complexity, or 18% to 20 % if food service is involved.<\/p>\n<p>Links:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.disneydrinkblog.com\">Disney Drink Blog<\/a> &#8211; Our Sister Site<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Recreation\"><\/span>Recreation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11868\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2.jpg\" alt=\"Tipping at Disney World - Recreation\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2-540x360.jpg 540w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/DIsney-for-Grownups-Military-Disney-Tips-Golf2-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are a wide variety of recreation activities at Disney World.<\/p>\n<p>Offer a tip of at least 15% to these non Disney employees: golf instructors caddies, ski boat drivers, water ski instructors, parasailing guides, tennis instructors, fishing guides.<\/p>\n<p>For Fireworks\/Illuminations Cruises tip as you would for a limo driver, 15% &#8211; 20%.<\/p>\n<p>Carriage rides as well 15% &#8211; 20%.<\/p>\n<p>Links:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/walt-disney-world\/top-11-free-or-low-cost-disney-world-activities\/\">Top 12 Free, or Low Cost Disney World Ideas<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Theme_Parks\"><\/span>Theme Parks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Theme-Park.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15867\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Theme-Park.jpg\" alt=\"Tipping at Disney World - Theme Parks\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Theme-Park.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Theme-Park-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Theme-Park-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Walt-Disney-World-Tipping-Theme-Park-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The only cast members to tip in the theme parks are those providing spa-like personal services i.e. the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo Makeovers, Pirate&#8217;s League, and Harmony Barber Shop.
