Several cruise operators have introduced fees for passengers who take food from buffet areas back to their cabins. This move is intended to tackle food waste and prevent misuse of the buffet offerings.

Some guests have expressed surprise and dissatisfaction upon encountering these unexpected charges. Notably, Costa Cruises has implemented a fee of $70 for passengers found taking buffet items to their cabins. Beyond this, details about fees from other lines or specific policies remain limited.
