Garavar Posted December 4, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I have asked this before on my last cruise but I am having a mental battle with the math yet again.. Royal is offering 2 devices surf + Stream for 21.99 per day. For a 5 night cruise that would be $109.95 total. However we are Diamond and we get 1 day of free Internet or $19.99 coupon (right? Or is a $17.99 coupon I can remember) However I can't remember what the price is if pre purchasing comes out to less because I can't remember what the book on board price is. Therefore my questions are 1) what is the book on board price for 2 devices surf and stream 2) what is my diamond coupon? $19.99 or $17.99? 3) can mine and my lady's coupons be combined to buy 2 device surf/stream package? 4) Which option would come out cheaper based on above answers. If #1 is $25 a day which is what I think it is, then it would be $25 x 5 = 125 - 19.99 (my diamond coupon) - 19.99 (my lady's) = $85.02 if we can combine the coupons.

Clarea Posted December 4, 2016 #2 Share Posted December 4, 2016 On board prices: http://www.royalcaribbeanincentives.com/content/uploads/Voom.pdf I believe the D discount is $20. Discounts cannot be combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discounts cannot be combined. So it appears 2 devices would be $32/day. So it would be cheaper to pre-purchase.

Clarea Posted December 4, 2016 #4 Share Posted December 4, 2016 So it appears 2 devices would be $32/day. So it would be cheaper to pre-purchase. I agree. Even if you used one coupon for one free day and used the other coupon for $20 off a package, the difference would only be $2, and you would only have a one device package on your free day.

Wine-O Posted December 4, 2016 #5 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I went on line into My Cruises and checked on the cruise planner -- they were offering a special price for unlimited internet for the entire cruise. I paid $167 for a 14-day transatlantic for one device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobie1976 Posted December 4, 2016 #7 Share Posted December 4, 2016 If you purchase a package at discounted rate they do not give you the ca dollars toward it. You can however use it toward internet purchased on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

internetwhiz Posted December 4, 2016 #9 Share Posted December 4, 2016 There was a sale back in mid October for 30% off pre-cruise price. The cost for 14 nights on Freedom TA was 8.99 a day for surf and stream or $125 for the cruise. I didn't think I'd beat it so I bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renjrusa Posted December 4, 2016 #10 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Is it worth it to get stream and surf as opposed to just the surf package. I will be buying for 2 devices..Anybody use it for facetime to home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garavar Posted December 4, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Is it worth it to get stream and surf as opposed to just the surf package. I will be buying for 2 devices..Anybody use it for facetime to home? I use the surf and stream to make business calls while on board. The stream isn't very fast for Web surfing in my opinion. I cannot imagine what surf package is like. Sent from my STV100-1 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, on Liberty, it's not worth it, and they say the satellite coverage for the areas of its itinerary isn't as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be buying for 2 devices..Anybody use it for facetime to home? Currently you don't have a choice if you want to buy online, only Stream is available. Both are available on the ship. A video app like Facetime would probably work on Surf on a ship with O3B internet but may not on an older ship. Just so you know, you can share a one device package across as many devices as you want - you will just be limited to one at a time online.

Rare vacationlover_mn Posted December 4, 2016 #14 Share Posted December 4, 2016 On a related note... you can just buy one package and share it, if you don't both need to be online at the same time... that is what we have done in the past, and plan on doing in February...
