  1. I just want to point out that someone recently posted saying Princess should add at least one craft beer to the menu, and he was chastised by people telling him to accept the current options and stop thinking himself so important that Princess would care what he wanted. It appears he deleted the entire thread. But I guess what the customer wants does matter, so here's to that guy! [emoji482]
    Cheers to that!!

  2. I'd rather it be unclear before boarding than not offered at all ;p Did you encounter any issue with using too much data while staying logged in all day? Thank you for the information, this is very helpful!
    So_Tweetie, love your YouTube videos! I was on the Grand over Easter and had the mid tier plan. Never any issues with being able to post. Oddly YouTube was blocked on my Kindle but I was able to use the app to stream on my phone.

  3. I forgot I started this thread. On our 3/23 - 4/7 Hawaii cruise, I choose the middle tier. The speed was good, but certain sites were blocked. YouTube and a few other streaming sites. Unless you need to watch videos, the middle tier should be good.

     

    If you purchase prior to sailing, they leave a card in your cabin and you must go down to the internet cafe to activate your package.

     

    This is so much more convenient than counting minutes. You can easily switch from device to device and don't have to worry about logging out.

  4. We had excellent private shore excursions and two Princess excursions.

    What were the ports on this cruise? I have a 14 day Barcelona to Rome cruise booked on the emerald with stops in Salerno, Kotor, Corfu, Crete, Mykonos, Crete, Athens, Santorini, Messina and Naples.It's not until 8/19, but it's never to early to start looking at things to do.

  5. You'll need to purchase the internet package. But be advised the internet service is SLOW!! and I mean SLOW.
    I was on the 3/23 - 4/7 cruise and I thought the speed was pretty good. I was able to stream YouTube videos with very little lag.

  6. We are on the Regal right now in L107, a “Club Class” mini suite. We have viewed everything up to Penthouse Suites and have seen nothing we like more. Highest deck, oversized balcony wrapping around and quiet. Best floor plan on the ship. If we come back it will be L107 or L108 depending on itinerary.

    We were in M107. It was incredible. Two rooms with the balcony being the roof of the bridge.

  7. After enjoying the unlimited internet package on the Grand on my Hawaii 3/23 - 4/7, I'm wondering how long it will take to implement this far superior system (vs minutes) across the fleet.

     

    Anyone have any info on when they will expand this service?

     

    I want to book cruises for next year, but after experiencing the speed and ablity to stay connected without worrying about minutes, I can't book another cruise without knowing this will be offered.

  8. I’d also like to know the difference in the packages. We are sailing on The Grand and they are offering several packages to purchase online, including unlimited ‘social’ and a ‘surf’ unlimited package which doesn’t include streaming. I’d like to know if you can view emails on the social package or is this only possible on the ‘surf’ option?
    I was on the 3/23-4/7 Hawaii cruise on the Grand. I had the mid tier option. I was able to check email, but streaming was not an option. Weird thing - my YouTube app worked on my phone, but not on my Kindle.
