Wow! A thread in which up until this point no one is blaming ALPA for their stolen pensions and widebody positions which in turn leads to their, shall I say, thriftiness with tipping.

Miracles do happen!

If gutless ALPO had negotiated appropriate Per Diem rates that took into account a DAL pilot's naturally generous nature...

I think air travelers should start tipping Flight Attendants!

As a 1%er, I enjoy sharing. It's unfortunate how many among us fortunate few gain no such pleasure.

So what's the consensus on hotel housekeepers?

Tipping, I mean.

I always tip the housekeepers, at least a couple of bucks per service. Usually more if I am on vacation with the family.

Well I thought the hotel vans have no obligation to pick us up at the trng building.... but do, hence the difference.
