tcgary Posted May 20, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Does anyone know if the Pride got the new internet plans this week? If so can anyone post the pricing. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjp25428 Posted May 20, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yes... $25 for social media sites only for week. $60 for the week for unlimited internet & email... $90 for the week for unlimited/blast internet basically supposed to be 3x faster and recommended if your going to stream audio/video such as Skype.

cjp25428 Posted May 20, 2015 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2015 These prices will give you 1 log in ID, meaning you can use it or another person in your cabin can share it on their device. BUT, only 1 person can use it at a time. You have to physically log in and log out when done and only 1 person can be logged in at a time. You can purchase multiple packages in a cabin if you need more than 1 logged in at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libbyonthelabel Posted May 20, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yes, we were on May 10-17 and we bought the week plan. But boy was it buggy. And really I paid $60.00 for email because even when I wanted to look up something simple about a port, it rarely loaded. It also told me several times when I logged in that my birthdate and folio were wrong, which they weren't. This resulted in me being locked out and then it magically started working the next day. After all that, I needed to have email, so I guess it was better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

absolutonrox Posted May 23, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Is this for the on ship computers or wifi that can be used on phones/laptops etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b6283 Posted May 25, 2015 #7 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Yes, the $5/day plan ($25/week) gave us Facebook messenger so we could stay in contact with home. No video and a bit slow, but better than full internet rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosemont5380 Posted May 25, 2015 #8 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Just got off the Pride yesterday. I bought the $25 social media package and it was wonderful. I was able to keep in touch with family through Facebook messenger. I posted quite a bit throughout the cruise and never had any issues at all. Couldn't believe how fast it was!

1maggie1 Posted May 26, 2015 #9 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Thanks for posting this. I hope you had a good time. We are sailing in 3 weeks and my daughter needs to be able to stay in touch with her boyfriend and this will make her happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allentownahoy Posted May 26, 2015 #10 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I am new to Carnival and still a bit confused about this package. If all I want to do is e mail is that covered with the $5 a day package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp2k Posted May 26, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Here is the breakdown of the packages, shared from another poster in another thread: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjp25428 Posted May 26, 2015 #12 Share Posted May 26, 2015 No for email you will need the value plan or better the social one won't work for your email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allentownahoy Posted May 27, 2015 #13 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Thanks. Unfortunately I am not social media savvy. I do use Facebook but my husband, who will not be with me, does not. He is the one I most want to stay in touch with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlynnp Posted June 1, 2015 #14 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Thanks. Unfortunately I am not social media savvy. I do use Facebook but my husband, who will not be with me, does not. He is the one I most want to stay in touch with. Does he have a smartphone? Does he text? Facebook Messenger is a downloadable APP! It works just like any other phone texting app. Try it before your trip. I'm sure he will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would just hang when trying to refresh and then give a cannot load messages error. And that was with pictures and videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
