monogrammedbelle Posted November 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Has anyone successfully used the Ticketmaster app while on the ship’s WiFi? To make a long story short, my DH is a life-loyal fan of The Boss. He has tried twice, unsuccessfully, to purchase Springsteen on Broadway tickets. We recently found out that there will be a third ticket release while we will be onboard the Pride enjoying our second sea day. The tickets sell out in minutes. Would he be able to use the TM app? Ship’s internet browser? Has anyone done this successfully? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpagejr Posted November 27, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Well...I used the Carnival wifi on my cruise last week. I needed to checkin with Southwest. So exactly 24 hrs before my departure I hit the button and got the range of boarding I am accustomed to when on my computer at home. I would recommend your husband get on the website and be at the last "clicking point" for the tickets when the ticket availability starts. He should get a good 1st try... however if he gets kicked out....it may take longer than normal for him to retry. But to answer your original question.... Yes he will have access to Ticketmaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiotAct Posted November 27, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Ticketmaster anything for a high-demand event is “oof”, even using on-land wifi. I wouldn’t get your hopes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coevan Posted November 28, 2017 #6 Share Posted November 28, 2017 There are so many alternate ticket agencies like Stubb Hub and Axs Tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were verified but got no code or got a code but no tickets then you'll be eligible to try again for tickets. Otherwise no luck. "Due to overwhelming participation in the original Onsale powered by Ticketmaster Verified Fan[emoji768], there will be no additional registration for this extension. Fans who previously registered and were verified but placed on Standby and did not receive a code, and fans who received a code but were unsuccessful in purchasing tickets will be contacted by Ticketmaster with further information about the added shows." So unless your already registered for a code it may not matter if the site works or not. I was not able to register the first time so I'm a little disappointed and am hoping the show is extended and opened to new Onsale registrations.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk He is registered but has not received a code for the previous two onsales. We are going to try to stay optimistic about our chances for this time....which is why Ticketmaster on the high seas will be attempted ;p We are doing everything we can to avoid paying the astronomical upcharges of the resellers/scalpers on other sites. Hopeful that with the introduction of more tickets into the market, resale prices may go down as tickets are less scarce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
