NaplesKnitter Posted December 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Hi- We were considering getting an iPad as a gift while onboard the Equinox next week- Does anyone know the policy re any problems if iPad doesn't work etc. Will Apple store provide assistance? Thanks in advance for any help with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alakegirl Posted December 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2017 The products are all covered by the standard warranties just as if you bought them at a Best Buy or other Apple reseller, and the on board staff are generally very helpful.

Correct but keep in mind that stock is extremely limited, will only have wifi units available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiltonian Posted December 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2017 . . . and usually only limited range; on Sillhouette in October, just the iPad Pro - no "non-Pro" models at all. Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted December 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 13, 2017 And... keep in mind, along with being covered by the standard warranty, you can always purchase Apple Care for your tablet when you return home....if that is even something you are interested in. They will inspect your tablet and your receipt first and then allow you to purchase this. As others have said, the models are extremely limited and stock may be low. But, it is a great deal if you have a lot of OBC to burn and no tax charged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted December 13, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 13, 2017 There are lots of pre-Christmas iPad sales currently, so at least be aware of prices to enable an informed comparison when shopping aboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north29 Posted December 13, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Buy only if you have excess OBC. Buy only the iPad pro model, not that the other iPads are bad, but the pro model (latest pro model) is significantly better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Sixth? Posted December 13, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Did they have the 12.9 inch iPad onboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted December 13, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Did they have the 12.9 inch iPad onboard? There was back in May on the Solstice when I bought mine ... but that is no assurance there will be some available on your sailing. So ... maybe is the answer. Your best bet is to check the roll call before yours and ask the question there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare keesar Posted December 14, 2017 #10 Share Posted December 14, 2017 When we have gone to the store on board, inventory has been very low. They mostly had add ons for your existing devices. Inventory will vary by cruise. As mentioned, check the prices. I bought one last night (newest model) at a substantial savings at a national department store. I have until January 24 to return it if I don't like it. Too good a deal to pass up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
