In my observation, the non-tippers are usually a very small percentage, and are senior CA's... at regionals and majors.
I don't make a trip the bank to get ones, if I don't have any ones they may not get tipped if they can't break a larger bill (they might get a fiver as a tip in that case if they were on time and helpful).
They also don't get a tip if they don't touch my bags.

Don’t get out of van? No tip. (Unless there are extenuating circumstances of course)
I’d put it around 95% if I had to guess.

Same here. In fact, I’d rather grab my own bags; not because they can’t do it or don’t do a good job, but rather because I’m capable and don’t need to be treated like something special. Just my 2 cents.

I really don't understand why crews feel compelled to tip. Riding in the hotel van is a required part of my job. Sure, if a driver really helps us out with something I'd tip. I always tip for rides off duty (i.e. restaurants, or into town). But just mindlessly giving away hundreds of dollars a year for something I have to do for work never made sense to me.
