Answer: (B)

Gratuities on Disney Cruise Line are handled through an automatic tipping program.Disney adds daily gratuities to your onboard account to compensate the service staff, including dining room servers and your stateroom attendant. This means you won’t need to carry cash for tips, and the tipping is arranged in advance for consistent service.

You have control over the amount: you can choose to prepay gratuities at the time of booking, or you can adjust the daily gratuity rate on your onboard account during the voyage (typically through Guest Services or your online account). This setup provides both convenience and flexibility to align tipping with your experience.
