Wifi question

[Mamabelle]

Sailing on the Norwegian dawn tomorrow. (Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy) I am assuming there is wifi. Is is free? If not, how much is it? Sailing on the Norwegian Dawn.

Best to research on the NCL board. May or may not have it, but I promise it won't be free.

You can purchase a block of minutes for a lesser price or you can just pay as you go. But expect to pay anywhere from $.55 to $.75 a minute. Plus, Internet is VERY slow. Sometimes it can take more than a minute to download one page.

Kitty9 is correct. You can purchase the plan or pay as you go.

It will be expensive and slow.

 

Alternatives will include restaurants and bars in port. Some have free wifi.

 

Internet cafes in port. There will be a charge, but much cheaper and faster than the ship.

 

Ask your cabin steward or waiter where to go.

Plus, Internet is VERY slow. Sometimes it can take more than a minute to download one page.

 

Just as an example for downloading speed: I downloaded the Windows 8 upgrade in approximately 6 minutes at home.

 

The Microsoft Tech Instructor on the ms Westerdam took nearly 6 hours to download the upgrade for his laptop on board. He kept his fingers crossed that there were no interruptions.
