The local network on the ship is free, and it would be called the intranet. The method you use to connect is called WiFi. Don't forget to turn airplane mode on when your phone is on while onboard.

I always put it in airplane model, turn off cellular etc. then put in safe & leave until end of cruise. Guess I will have to keep it handy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently lost 45 pounds and wish all restaurants would do that. I just cannot eat adult portions in one sitting anymore. I always have a to-go box to bring home. My dog loves it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Casino is open in CocoCay by special agreement with the Bahamas government Also, docked late in Nassau, the Casino will open up before the ship leaves.

Yes you need to be connected to the ship’s Wi-Fi. That is free. You do NOT have to pay for internet (voom). everything you need is free (except buying a phone or iPad).

Did you notice if the Diamond club was open and how they handled drinks if it was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
