>>When we go on RCL or Princess through MGM or other properties via Players Travel the service is significantly better because they get the tip they deserve instead of it being built-in to their salary.
You must not have been on RCL in a while. I was on an RCL ship (the Oasis) for the first time last year, and they had the same autograt policy.
While the service on the Oasis was not lacking, they didn't seem as friendly as they do on NCL. Of course, like I mentioned in another post, I'm always on the newest NCL ship so I often see the same crew so I might be getting better and friendlier service just because they recognize me, so it probably isn't a fair comparison.
That being said, though, I found NCL to be much more organized. Also, you are much more pampered being a Haven guest than being a guest in a Crown Loft suite. I was particularly surprised that they don't even offer Crown Loft guests an escort to bypass the lines when you disembark. It makes a difference when you are carrying all your luggage off yourself instead of picking it up outside of customs.
