Bellamariya Posted April 4, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I always get an internet package while cruising, to keep in contact with family and to update my travel blogs. I know reception may be patchy on an Alaskan cruise. Can anyone tell me of their actual experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveru621 Posted April 4, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Normally I would have purchased the 7 day package, but not on this cruise. I used my free D+ internet minutes and didn't have any problems. The reason not to get the package? Your cell phone will connect with USA land cell towers for a large part of the cruise. If I had photos, I just transferred them to my cell phone. Now that AT&T lets me use my phone as a wireless hot spot it will be that much easier. Enjoy your cruise.

Sadly I don't have a US phone :( As an Australian that lives in Vanuatu, our phones don't even have the option to roam. Good to know that the ships internet will work :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
