Cometman Posted August 14, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I have gotten WiFi on board the Wind Surf in the past with okay results- what is everyone's experience with the WiFi on the Star Legend? I called Windstar and they said it was only good for email. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redtravel Posted August 15, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 15, 2019 It is ok. Not very fast. It would be nice if Windstar gave guests free WiFi. There are several cruise lines that have free WiFi. Most hotels give it away. If you have a problem with WiFi on the ship, ask the crew. They know where to find good free WiFi in most ports. They also know where to eat and drink in most ports.

milepig Posted September 13, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) On our cruise that ended a week ago everyone was complaining about it, but then the TV didn't have a signal most of the time either. This was on the Breeze, but I assume they all use the same service? The other thing was that the ship was very bad about leaving On Waves on when in port. It blasted away any shore-based service and we needed to be super careful about what the phones were picking up.

Redtravel Posted September 28, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 28, 2019 On the Breeze in May. TV signal worked well. If it had been out, we would have been unhappy. We docked in Oporto 2 days waiting out a storm. The TV helped pass the time. The movies were timely enjoyed watching “in Bruges”. It was a stop on the cruise.

I love that movie. “...F-ing Bruges...” movie’s great, I’m not a fan of the town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strenz Posted September 30, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Hi, I think tourism has really ruined places. My stay in Bruges with WS did I did not love it, do not need to go back, it was a mob scene, over the top crowded, the water way had litter. I did love Michelangelo’s Madonna statue, the most stolen art statue in history and his only work outside of Italy. Since, I went to Santorini, which was the same for me grim on land beautiful from the water I am done with touristy tourism. I adore Venice it is in my soul but I stay away from anything to do with crowds and am happy to wander the back streets visit the churches where you can experience great art with no one taking selfies ( makes me crazy in front of art ). On our trip with WS we went to Delfshaven, canals, no one, loaded with history, the Pilgrims, their church where the spent the night before the voyage almost 400 years ago, not destroyed in WWII. For us we think about travel differently now, we do not need to go where the rest of the world goes but we love going with WS planning our own adventures. I know I am sounding crabby and I am not but l love authentic experiences away from crowds. I also love research and have a very large imagination. I am always happy for people when they have a nice experience when I did not. Happy Sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruges is beyond twee - too perfect, too Disney, sorry, but to me it seems to have no soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O2B@Cagain Posted October 1, 2019 #11 Share Posted October 1, 2019 If you go to places like Bruges on a cruise, you will experience over tourism. Stay several nights and walk along the canals and the squares in the moonlight and you will have a different view. IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about all those uplights on the buildings made it all even faker. It isn't a real city, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
