LorraineP Posted January 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted January 16, 2022 As a Diamond Plus is it better to purchase WiFi through the cruise planner with 30% off sale or wait until on board & use Diamond plus discount. Cruise is 11 nights & I know we will get 2 free days each both DH & myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another_Critic Posted January 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Assuming you want Voom the entire cruise, it's a lot cheaper via the Cruise planner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another_Critic Posted January 16, 2022 #4 Share Posted January 16, 2022 On board, surf is $17.99/day. $17.99 * 11 = $197.89 - $51.98 (D+ on board discount) = $145.91 $12.59 (Surf in Cruise Planner) * 11 = $138.49 $138.49 < $145.91 - I guess that is cheaper, not a lot cheaper. 😄 Of course if you wait a couple of days to sign up, on board will be cheaper.

Plus your math didn't include the second person in the cabin having two days of Voom with their discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The D+ discount works greatly in their favor if 1 device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropiclvrs Posted January 17, 2022 #14 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Is there a Diamond (not plus) discount? I do recall getting 1 free day previously, so wondering if that is still available and especially for short 3 day sailings? I’m thinking just waiting to buy it onboard since Day 1 isn't really needed, day 2 would be free with Diamond, so I would only need to buy for Day 3. Does that sound right?

One free 24 hour period of internet per Diamond member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only looking for 1 device for Anthem 1/31/22 Use the two free D+ days on one C&A account, then buy "rest of voyage" using $51.98 D+ discount on the other account. Note that a daily pass is valid for 24 hours (e.g., 3 pm to 3 pm), not necessarily midnight to midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
