Hi All,
I'm a new train traveler (well, I did take the Sunset Limited to NO from LA, but that was in 1979).
I'm planning a trip from LA to Atlanta around the Christmas holidays and I plan to get a sleeper from LA to NO. After that, I plan to go coach to Atlanta since it's only about 12 hours.
My question(s): How is tipping of the wait staff in the dining car handled since meals are included in the sleeper fare? Do you press cash into the person's hand? Is 15% standard?
What about the person who attends your room? What's a fair tip? :huh:
Thanks for any advice.
