Full wi-fi package - how does it work?

[SP2023]

I am about to pre-order the full internet package for our Costa cruise. I noticed the following sentence on Costa's website:

 

• You can use this package on all your devices, but only on one device at a time.

 

How does this work? I want to use wi-fi on both my phone and my laptop. If I connect to the wi-fi with my phone first, will the phone then be automatically disconnected when I connect with my laptop? Or do I have to disconnect manually?

It works manually. But… as long as Costa didn’t invent anything to prohibit recently (system is currently updated) there is a convenient way to work around. You could use your phone as local hot spot. As soon as your phone is close enough to your laptop both are connected.

Sailed on smeralda last month, when signing into laptop, phone eventually lost connection and vice versa. Costa app still works without paid connection

You were able to use the Costa app on a US phone? Or just on your laptop?

App works fine, just can't download it from the nannystate apple or google. Got android from aptoide, my son installed ios from a spanish site.
