How's the internet service for Solstice Alaska

[roquejo]

Any updates on the current internet for Solstice in its Alaska sailing.

 

I've read a recent review complaining on the internet on the Solstice so a bit concerned.

 

In the first place, is the internet satellite signal in the Alaska inside passage good all through out?

 

Coz I recalled in my Serenade sailing in Norwegian Fjords, there is a dead spot in the Geirangerfjord area when we don't have internet the entire day.. but speed became better as we are nearing Copenhagen.

 

Any dead spots in Alaska especially in the remote Tracy Arm/Endicott Arm area?

Spotty Internet, better when in town. Zero by the glacier. If it did not come with the room, I most likely would not have gotten it.

BTW I just returned on 7/22.

Thanks, BTW, did you managed to get into Tracy Arm? Or it is still filled with ice and you went to Endicott Arm instead?

We had to do Endicott.

Thanks for the update

As posted, no Internet for hours before or after glaciers. Sea days are spotty depending on how remote. We had unlimited use and we're generally pleased as one simply needs to look outside to see how remote you truly are. Also Skagway was very very spotty. All other ports and nearby areas were really good

What type of cellphone plan do you have? It may be easier/cheaper to just tether and use your cellphone data.
