Sparkygirl Posted February 11, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Does this work while in airplane mode connected to wifi? I'm considering if this is a good idea or not for our teens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valen9 Posted February 11, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I used it that way when I was last on Breakaway. All you need is wifi for the data connection. But then again, I didn't pay for it -- I just used the free services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niclan6 Posted February 11, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We used it last week and for $7.50/device found it to be good value and well used. It was a great way for us all to stay connected on board, we were travelling with two families and 4 teens. The service was spotty at times but being able to text and talk to others with the App as well as calling anywhere on the ship, to rooms and reservations, was a great feature. It worked just with wifi but again did not always work but overall it was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stagetek23 Posted February 11, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2016 What services are free and what ones do you pay for?? Is the charge per day or for the whole trip? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizdiz Posted February 11, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 11, 2016 What services are free and what ones do you pay for?? Is the charge per day or for the whole trip? Thank you Wow stage what a beautiful husky you have! When I was on the epic the free services were to check your folio or make reservations. Pay features let you text and call others on the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelo_R Posted February 11, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2016 What services are free and what ones do you pay for?? Is the charge per day or for the whole trip? Thank you I did a write up on iConcierge App here from the NCL Star. I also used it on the Getaway Jan 2015. I don't know if it was our phones (iphone 4s) or the wifi on the Getaway, but on-board calling/texting portion (which is what you pay for) didn't work well at all. We have iPhone 6s when we just did the NCL Star, but didn't try the call/text feature. We just used it for Account Review, What's Going On, and some of the other information only stuff.

irocet Posted February 11, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We just used it on the Escape last week and for the most part it worked great. There were occasional times I had to restart the app to text, but overall it worked great and was worth it considering the size of that ship.
