cruisingteachers4 Posted July 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I have cellular and data in Mexico, but need to submit a few assignments and attend a zoom meeting on 2 of the sea days while on the Panorama out of Long Beach. I definitely don't want to prepay for the entire week at $14.45 per day for my 7 day cruise. Has anyone purchased a single day pass on their cruise? If so, how much did the single day cost? Thank you SO much for your 411!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted July 15, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I think it was $16 when I cruised 2 weeks ago. Just make sure the plan supports zoom calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you SO much for your 411!! The daily rate for Premium WiFi was $25 per day (24-hour period) just before the shutdown. I haven't checked on any ships since then, and they announced an increase for many of their WiFi plans a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserLucas Posted July 15, 2022 #4 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I've never seen less than $25/24 hour period on each of the cruises I've been on. We've also bought day passes for my partner to check school items like you're planning, but he hasn't used Zoom on it before. It was reliable and fast enough for simple tasks, but we still had random connectivity issues at times. That was in our cabin. Maybe the card room/computer room or something would be empty for you to use and have a better signal if you plan to Zoom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasJohn82 Posted July 15, 2022 #7 Share Posted July 15, 2022 We paid $28 for the last day on the Vista about 1 week ago for my son to attend a Zoom call for a test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted July 15, 2022 #8 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I think the pricing in that screenshot is out of date. Prices increased a few months ago. $28 that @TexasJohn82 reported sounds right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say, though, Carnival does a poor job of making sure that everything on their website is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their problem is they have the same information on a multitude of pages and when things change they often only change it in some places. For example, some pages still say Carnival offers fleet-wide self service laundry even though that is not true and has not been true for nearly a year since Mardi Gras launched.

sweatdrop Posted July 15, 2022 #11 Share Posted July 15, 2022 On the Panorama right now and if purchased onboard, the value plan is $17.00/day and the premium plan is $25.00/day. For the entire 7-day cruise its $91.00 and $119.00 for the value and premium plans respectively. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raynvic Posted July 15, 2022 #13 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Just my experience, the mid WiFi works as good as the more expensive WiFi. I did zoom meetings and worked on 3 different cruises this year. The first two I paid for the upgraded WiFi the last one I did not. No difference. Where you will encounter the most difficulty is on a sea day when everyone is on their phones. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's up to date - I just prepaid for the wifi for my sailing at the end of the month this morning, and it was $14.45/day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
