tidecat Posted February 15, 2017 #26 Share Posted February 15, 2017 What personal information would they get with this that they dont already have? Sent from my SM-G935P using Forums mobile app The only information on the medallion is an ID number that has no other meaning - effectively the same as the folio number on your card. That ID number is specific to you and the particular sailing. Sent from my eye phone using Forums FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJHAN Posted February 15, 2017 #27 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Actually if you read the article it's about Carnival Corp.'s Regal Princess. With a targeted roll out some time in 2018.Personally I can not see Carnival Corp. retrofitting over 100 vessels in the space of just a few years. Look at how long it is taking them to implement just the 2.0 Fun features and install the Hub app repeaters to the 24 current CCL ships. Sent from my STV100-2 using Forums mobile app Disney did it in pretty short order. And for the most part there it works wonderfully.

The rfid says it me the pin code says yes charge him for what he ordered or open the door. I dont see the big deal.

Sent from my SM-G935P using Forums mobile app It is not a big "deal", but in allows them (the them is Disney, or Royal, or Carnival) to track your location at all times wherever you are on the ship. I prefer them not to know how and where I spend my time on vacation down to spending 13.5 minutes in the bathroom every day, or why chairs I sit by the pool at, or how long I stand at railing watching the sunset.

AussieOmni Posted February 15, 2017 #31 Share Posted February 15, 2017 As I said on the 300 other threads on this. The card is fine for a physical token. If they want tech then why not just enhance the app they already have? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidecat Posted February 15, 2017 #32 Share Posted February 15, 2017 The card is limited because it cannot transmit. There is a transmitter inside the medallion. Stateroom doors, kiosks, payment terminals, etc. are the receivers in the medallion model. Sent from my eye phone using Forums FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
