How much is WIFI internet access on FOS?

Just curious. Wondering whether it is worth it to take the computer or not! Thanks!

Does anyone know if the free minute you get with your C & A coupon books can be applied to Wifi services?

Just to add to that, Freedom (and probably Oasis) class ships have Wi-Fi in the cabin if you bring your own laptop. You don't have to go to any of the six designated "hot spots".

 

And yes, C&A coupon book internet coupons can be applie to Wi-Fi services.

There is not a separate wifi service. You pay for the Internet plan and you use the minutes on their computer (which is slow) or on your own. Yes you get wifi anywhere on Oasis.
