applefan75 Posted August 15, 2015 #201 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Not sure what hotels you are staying at but ALL of the hotels that I've stayed at in the last 15 years of international travel have been 100% free. I'm not sure what hotels you're staying at, because most business oriented hotels charge for Internet. Also, most hotels in resort areas such as Las Vegas and Miami charge a daily resort fee of 15-20 USD a night. This resort fee covers Internet. I think it's a relative bargain what RCI is charging for daily Internet when compared to other resort places.

chermilo Posted August 15, 2015 #202 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) Would be nice to know if this new D D+ internet policy is fleet wide or only for those upgraded Quantum and Oasis class ships. How about the Voyager, Radiance, Vision classes where the internet is still slow? Are the internet access benefits for D and D+ also on consecutive 24 hour basis? Or still metered? It was on Rhapsody when I was on it in April. I ended up buy the unlimited package for each of the 3 back to back I was on. If you break it down with the Diamond + discount, the price was not that bad. And I just stayed logged on for 24 hours a day!

I travel quite a bit for business and leisure, staying mostly at Hilton, Marriott, IGH and Hyatt properties and I don't remember paying for wifi anytime recently.

Clarea Posted August 15, 2015 #205 Share Posted August 15, 2015 ...How about the Voyager, Radiance, Vision classes where the internet is still slow?... Only unlimited internet plans on Enchantment. No per minute plans. Least you can buy is one 24 hour period. Very slow at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I travel quite a bit for business and leisure, staying mostly at Hilton, Marriott, IGH and Hyatt properties and I don't remember paying for wifi anytime recently. For Hilton, Hyatt and Starwood, the free Internet is a relatively new thing, maybe in the last 12-18 months. With Starwood you have to book online or through the app to get it. We had to call to redeem points and it wasn't included. It always seems that the more expensive hotels charge for it while the mid and lower priced ones do no. Go figure.

roquejo Posted August 16, 2015 #207 Share Posted August 16, 2015 The new internet program for D/D+/PC Members began it's roll out in April of this year. We were on Legend in April and were able to take advantage. Great, I'll be in Legend from late Oct to early Nov, how is the internet speed there? Is the speed only limited to browsing and checking email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnocchi_mommy Posted August 16, 2015 #208 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) On my last cruise with Carnival (April), they offered a $40 unlimited internet plan that covered the entire cruise!! I was hoping maybe a new trend was going to follow with other comparable lines. Sounds like not quite yet. :rolleyes: Edited August 16, 2015 by gnocchi_mommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
