treehugr Posted July 3, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Good morning, During our online check-in for our upcoming cruise on the Oasis, we came across a 30% discount for internet service if pre-paid. When pulling up, the rate came up at $9.09 pp per day. When I placed in the cart I had the option of choosing both my wife and I, or just one. For anyone who has pre-paid for internet, did you have to book all in the cabin, or just those you selected? We have no need for the internet other than checking in on email back home, therefore requiring nothing more than 1 person if indeed that can be done. $63.00 seems ok for the week, but a $126.00 seems pricey for email. We've written to RCCL with the same question, but have yet to hear back from them. Thank you in advance for your replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulxyz2004 Posted July 3, 2016 #2 Share Posted July 3, 2016 You can purchase just for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgnorton Posted July 3, 2016 #3 Share Posted July 3, 2016 You are paying for the number of devices on the Internet at the same time. You only need to pay for 1, Unless you and your wife will be using 2 devices on the Internet at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paris20 Posted July 3, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I did the prepay for one device for the cruise we just left this morning. It worked well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashland Posted July 4, 2016 #6 Share Posted July 4, 2016 We recently did the Surf...one device...one person (no need to do it for two) and our pre-purchase total of $9.99 for 7 nights on Adventure actually came out to $63.63. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted July 4, 2016 #7 Share Posted July 4, 2016 We recently did the Surf...one device...one person (no need to do it for two) and our pre-purchase total of $9.99 for 7 nights on Adventure actually came out to $63.63. That was an RCI IT glitch for a couple of months - the initial screen said 9.99 but it was 9.09 once in the cart. I think that has now been rectified.

dannyboy312 Posted July 4, 2016 #8 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Just get it for 1 device. If both you and your wife need to check email, log off the one device and log in on the other one. If you're only going to be checking email (not watching Netflix or uploading videos) , there's no need to upgrade for the faster internet that is capable of streaming.

On Oasis, like other O3B equipped ships, the SURF download speed has been reported up to about 4MBs (vs. up to 25MB for STREAM) - that's plenty to stream most services including Netflix.
