How much should I tip for the following services?
- Taxi
- Free airport shuttle service provided by the hotel
- Luggage hold at the hotel
Taxi: 10-15% + round up
Airport shuttle: $0-1/person (depending on service)
Luggage: $0-1/bag (depends on my mood)
Sit-down restaurants: 15-20% (except in SF where health insurance fee gets subtracted from tip)
Non sit-down restaurants: depends... usually coins into the tip jar if paying with cash
