Yes, APP should recognize your level and charge the appropriate discounted rate. If not, internet manager will adjust and correct your folio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare startedwithamouse Posted November 18, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Yes, your OBC will automatically apply to purchasing internet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trvlwrld Posted November 18, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Nice thing about buying internet on board is that they only charge you the discounted rate…no paying regular price before your cruise and then getting OBC once on board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rj59 Posted November 18, 2023 #6 Share Posted November 18, 2023 You get the discounted rate now either way. The other advantage of waiting. until on board is that you don't need to buy for the entire cruise, and can either do 24 hours or rest of voyage, which I do so I don't spend all my cruise staring at screens. I'll be on Island for 14 days next week, and instead of buying wifi onboard, I bought a $13 3GB eSIM Europe plan for the 10 or so port days, since it's more valuable in foreign countries to have data in ports, for things like maps and train schedules.

TorontoTL Posted November 18, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 18, 2023 We are onboard the Enchanted Princess right now, both of us are Elite CC. I purchased my internet package prior to the cruise using the medallion app. It was 50% off and since we’re Canadian they offered it at a better exchange rate than the current real exchange. My partner didn’t purchase ahead of time, he paid in USD via the app and did get 50% off as well, but not paid in CAD. Both have been taken out of our onboard credits. Hope that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helenb Posted November 19, 2023 #9 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Question: can you use different devices on a 'one device' package? I know that I can only have 1 device at a time... but can I log off of one device and then log in on a different one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of at least one ‘other’ cruise line, your WiFi plan is attached to the first device you use and cannot switch. Princess allows you to use ‘one’ active device at a time, so you can switch between different phones, tablets, laptops, etc. Some passengers find they will ‘share’ their plan with others if conditions work for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorontoTL Posted November 19, 2023 #12 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Currently on the Enchanted and switching devices on a one device plan is easy. I expected to have to turn off or log off a device when you wanted to use another, this isn’t necessary. Just open the Medallion app on the device you want to use, scroll down to Medallion Net, the app prompts you to swap devices. Click swap and then voila the device you’re using is on the shop WiFi using your plan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helenb Posted November 19, 2023 #13 Share Posted November 19, 2023 What about a laptop (that doesn't use the app)? Presumably I would be able to log onto the ship's wifi on that too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s done through a special web browser page that I just left loaded on all my devices so I could easily switch at will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only catch is that they both can’t be signed on at the same time. Tom😀 Edited November 19, 2023 by trbarton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
