Money Matters: Upon check-in, passengers set up an account for all shipboard purchases, except for the Casino. Cash, traveler's checks, and major credit cards are accepted for payment. Gratuities are included in the cruise fares, and additional amounts are not expected. All accounts are in U.S. dollars. Foreign exchange in some ports, with re-exchange of most currencies (bills only).
