Perry1180 Posted March 9, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Been enjoying reading and learning about my first cruise on Freedom of the Seas... What I would like to ask is there WiFi on board ship, or in staterooms? Is there a cost, and if so, how much? Used to paying $12.95 at Atlantic City hotels, but just wondering if I should bring a laptop computer. Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not certain if you will get a good signal in your stateroom as I don't know where that is located. It is expensive and it is slow. Don't plan on Skyping or loading your photos to the cloud. It's fine for email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare silentbob007 Posted March 9, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 9, 2014 You buy a package or pay per minute and it is slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteukmcr Posted March 9, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Standard rate is now 85c per minute. If you buy a package the cost per minute goes down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happytulips Posted March 10, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Here are the prices. The speeds vary by time of day. They claim it's half off between 11pm and 8am but it was always $0.37 per minute during that time. I was able to do email and post pictures to my blog, not the fastest but doable.

Clarea Posted March 10, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Freedom has pervasive WiFi, so all staterooms will have WiFi capability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dschultz56 Posted March 10, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 10, 2014 The Wifi signal reached our room on Freedom last October. But like others said, it is slow. Really email is about all you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimnjimnkids Posted March 10, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 10, 2014 There's free wireless internet in designated areas in the Jamaica port (not sure of your itinerary) Also most of the resorts, restaurants and beach parks in Cozumel have free wifi. We just got off of the Freedom this morning. Internet was very expensive and agonizingly slow on the ship...,don't waste your money.
