Note that Internet rates and packages are subject to change
without prior notice. Note, also, that
there are usually some Embarkation Day specials for Internet packages.
You can make and receive phone calls and text messages
while onboard. Cell phone roaming is
enabled on the ship; however, the system can be pricey as the price plans
feature international roaming rates and date charges. Contact your mobile phone service provider to
ensure that your account is activated for international roaming and inquire as
to per minute rates and date charges.
Internet Onboard tips:
·
Some free minutes may be offered the first day during
embarkation. Check with the Internet Manager for specific details
·
It doesn’t matter whether you bring your own computer or
use the computers on the ship. The price
is the same.
·
Think dial up speed when connecting on the ship. If you are sending emails, get all of your
writing done offline and then just connect when you actually send them.
