carnivalcroccodile529 Posted August 11, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I was wondering if the least expensive package allowed us to access internet? Or just social networking sites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ehran Posted August 12, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 12, 2015 still didnt tell me if i have access to safari 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.

hopeful2 Posted August 12, 2015 #6 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I was on just the social. I couldn't get on anytime other then Carnival website. Trying anything else just brings upgrade page up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seany527 Posted August 12, 2015 #8 Share Posted August 12, 2015 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volfan22701 Posted August 12, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 12, 2015 $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.

RHilla619 Posted August 12, 2015 #10 Share Posted August 12, 2015 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.

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D4 Posted August 12, 2015 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2015 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.

You only have access to sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, SnapChat, LinkedIn, etc. 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. Edited August 13, 2015 by Danacat222 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
