5$day/18$cruise social networking package?

[carnivalcroccodile529]

I was wondering if the least expensive package allowed us to access internet? Or just social networking sites?

[CrusinCyndi]

I would like to know also.

Yeah, it does. Sort of.

 

Social ($5 USD per day) – Access to popular social sites and Apps such as Facebook, What’s App and Instagram. Does not include access to the entire internet.

 

Safari is a web browser, and it's used to access the internet. You would be able to get to the above sites but not use Safari to get to any other websites.

I was on just the social. I couldn't get on anytime other then Carnival website. Trying anything else just brings upgrade page up.

So are you saying facebook did not work either?

[Seany527]

Does anyone remember what the cost of the social plan was for an entire cruise? I thought $25 but now I can't find it listed.

[volfan22701]

$25 only gets the social plan and that does include facebook. you can't access other internet sites. no texting or phone service with that plan. we have used it twice and it works well for face book and messenger.

The package is $5 a day or $25 for the entire cruise, it gives you access to Apps that require data/internet access. You won't be able to browse on safari or check emails with this package, but you will be able to access facebook/twitter/instagram/etc. via the apps.

Will iMessage work?

So you can only get facebook via app?

 

The description says social sites and apps. Is it actually not true that you can get the facebook website?

 

I don't use the app.

Yes, iMessage works.

We did a B2B on the Breeze in May and I had the social package. One cruise was 6 nights and the other was 8 nights, but the package was the same price on each cruise ($25). I used to spend about $80 per cruise for a block of internet minutes, so this was a big savings for me.

 

I mainly used Facebook and Facebook messenger.

I bought the social media package on my Freedom cruise for $25 a week and really liked it. You only have access to sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, SnapChat, LinkedIn, etc.

[bingo3]

Can you post while on Facebook, etc. or just view your newsfeed? :)

Tango? Anyone use Tango can tell me if that works? Also, what settings should a cell phone be on to avoid crazy charges? I usually put my phone on airplane mode, or just turn it off and keep it in the safe. I might try the hub app for a day or two though.

Can someone please tell me how the access works, is it $5 per day per device? or can you use on multiple devices?

 

Thanks

I'm ALMOST certain you put on airplane mode....that sounds like an oxy moron, but I think that's what I did last cruise..[emoji336]

You could use it on multiple devices, but not at the same time. One log out, then the other log in.

[volmoma]

Yes, we did that also...iPhone, iPad and my caveman DH had his Droid.
