seb530 Posted March 8, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I would think you will have to pay in 1 of two ways: - using your connection through the ships mobile phone link and pay data rates (not sure how high) - disable your iphone from the cellular network and set it up to use the ships wireless network, for which you will need to pay access charges as if you were in the computer suite. you know what they say... nothing in life is free ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaroseNY Posted March 8, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 8, 2010 we set our (my husband and I) iphones to Airplane mode and bought the internet plan from Princess. In some ports we got a signal but on the ship...it was Princess internet or nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Lew- Posted March 8, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 8, 2010 On your iPhone: Settings → Airplane Mode ON Wi-Fi → Wi-Fi ON A login screen will pop up → go through the login process → surf with Safari or open Mail to check/write email Wi-Fi onboard is not free unless you have Platinum or Elite status, but it's much less expensive than cell service.

amapola Posted March 8, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Also, in some ports you can get free wi-fi at cafés or even open air hotspots. HTH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
