Bwana Tom Posted May 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2018 With the Princess Capt. Circle Platinum membership do both people in the suite get the prescribed amount of free internet access minutes, or are you entitled is only one device/one allotment of minutes for the entire room?

Thrak Posted May 21, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Each passenger has their own minutes to use. As long as the passenger is either Platinum or Elite they get their own allotment. You create an account and log in on whatever device you choose to use. You can log out of your phone and log onto your tablet or laptop. One device per account at a time but as many devices as you like. Internet Minutes for Platinum and Elite Passengers 7 days or fewer 150 8-20 days 250 21+ days 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moki'smommy Posted May 21, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Each person who has attained platinum rank gets a plan. Each plan can be used on one device at a time. You can allow someone else to use your plan by sharing your password with them. But you still can only have one device at a time active for each plan that you have. It has nothing to do with the room or suite. The internet minutes are awarded to each person who has attained Platinum or above, in the number of minutes noted above (based on the length of the cruise).

Haboob Posted May 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Princess' internet policy is not fleetwide. Regal's differs and likely soon, Caribbean's, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moki'smommy Posted May 21, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Princess' internet policy is not fleetwide. Regal's differs and likely soon, Caribbean's, too. But the difference does not change the fact that each individual who has attained Platinum status gets a plan. The difference is that on ships that have the unlimited internet plans, the mid range plan is the benefit rather than a given number of minutes. And, just as a platinum or elite can choose to add minutes, on those ships with the unlimited plans, they can choose to pay to upgrade to the highest level plan.

upwarduk Posted May 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2018 We were sent an email yesterday, warning us that we would loose benefits if we didn’t opt in again to the loyalty program, as the ‘law is changing.’ I have attached a screen shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted May 21, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I believe the above notice on Captain's Circle members losing status applies to members in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Internet Minutes for Platinum and Elite Passengers 7 days or fewer 150 8-20 days 250 21+ days 500 We are on Regal next month - we get free internet for the length of the cruise fir one device each as the ship only seems to offer a 24 hour package. Don't know how long this offer is for. Perhaps it is something to do with Medallion? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk It has to do with having equipment to track the O3b equatorial satellites and their massive bandwidth. ...which are below the horizon and not useable from the Baltic. It's going to be interesting to see how Princess decides to cope with that little bit of basic physics. Please report back? BTW, the Regal / O3b combo set a record with 1500 simultaneous video streams when it was in the Caribbean last February -- almost enough for every other person to be walking around, watching a different movie on their smartphone.

Will do. Had a similar package with P&O in Caribbean this year and loved not having to worry how much time I spent on line [emoji846] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
