Rare Honolulu Blue Posted September 4 #26 Share Posted September 4 On 9/1/2024 at 5:39 PM, travelloverontario said: Hi... I am trying to decide if I want to sign up for the regular wifi package (NOT part of any other package/bundle) at $24.99 per day. I normally never use my phone on the ship, and only check in the odd time with free wifi at ports. However.. this time I am travelling solo (first time) and am debating getting the package. I was convinced I could do without it... but now I am getting anxious and nervous about it. I think I would feel better knowing I could communicate with family back home anytime while at sea (and use my Canada phone at all the ports...Canada/New England cruise on Emerald ). My question.. can I use wifi effectively all over the ship (Emerald specific)? In my cabin (OV), by the pool, etc? I would want to be able to facebook message and send snapchat videos and pictures. And at bedtime I would really want to be able to do a video call on facebook or discord or snapchat. Do you think ALL cabins would support a video call? As this is not part of a bundle/package...it would not be the 'medallion MAX', but just the regular medallion speeds. If I cannot effectively use wifi in my cabin... then that may be the deal breaker. Thanks for any insight. I was on the Emerald last month. I pre purchased the Internet plan. Streaming and general surfing was OK wherever I did it, including my interior cabin on Baja. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our experience too, but not sure if they are now going to tier wifi with these latest changes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked on our cruise facebook group and they gave the same answer as you!! I hope you are both correct as that is MUCH better for what I need! Someone currently on board the Emerald went and talked to the staff at the Internet Cafe...and you are correct. It is $29.99 usd for a 24 hour period. Thanks again 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
