Rare styles27 Posted October 19, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I’ve been trying to find out if this is possible as well as we have Easy Plus drinks and WiFi browsing for 2 devices included. I have phoned MSC twice the first call the rep didn’t understand my question. Second call the rep asked a supervisor who came on and told me it is possible but she didn’t know how to do it for me and advised me to go to guest services once onboard So that’s the plan. We cruise Divina 11/14 Which sailing(s) are you on? Whichever one of us is first we can start a new thread here to let others know if it’s possible and how much it is.

NMsunset Posted October 19, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I was able to find pre-cruise (48hr before boarding) pricing for streaming 1-device. They had no specs up/down, just that video calls and netflix etc worked. Note: I have Easy Plus package with basic 2-device wifi. Unlimited data, 24/7 during entire cruise. My Divina departure: Nov 14th for 7 nights is $100.73 Nov 21st for 11 nights is $158.29 Was told that it was 20% more to buy onboard; but if you buy onboard you can use OBC. No word yet on Cyber Cafe, if open, hours, services, prices... Also got pricing for upgrade of drinks to Premium Extra for both cruises. Cheers, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming it is also 20% cheaper than on board. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, So if we upgrade to “browse and stream” it would only be for 1 device even though our package includes 2? Where did you find the pricing is it on the MSC website?

neptuno Posted October 20, 2021 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Thanks for doing the research. We found the wifi to be slow in our cabin, but OK in other places. Please let us know your experience; and if you were able to video from your cabin. The cyber cafe may be the place to go, but not so private or quiet.

NMsunset Posted October 20, 2021 Author #8 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Hi Neptuno, which wifi package did you have? Could you be more specific about the device and web activities you were using/trying... When was your cruise and on which ship? Many Thanks!

If you tag neptuno like this @neptuno they will get a notification and see your question. (They should see it now that I’ve done it ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neptuno Posted October 21, 2021 #10 Share Posted October 21, 2021 We had the included wifi package, not an upgrade. Just using our phones. Wifi was weak in our cabins on Divina and Seaside, but much better in some public areas. This was back in 2019 and 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
