Internet "Planning"

[bar1068]

Looking to purchase an internet plan for our Venezia cruise in October, and beat the price increase that goes into effect tomorrow.

We usually get the Value plan, but looking to save about $50 by getting the Social plan. 

I've seen posts on hear suggesting iMessage does not work or is "not supported" on the Social plan, but I don't see that noted anywhere on Carnivals site, only other apps, email etc.? Other posts state iMessage worked fine. I've also experienced using iMessage without being connected to an internet plan, but certainly would not rely or count on that.

Question I have is if we decide the Social plan is not getting us what we want, and decide to upgrade, I'd assume the upgrade cost would be at the new, higher rate and the rate charged onboard, not the pre-cruise discounted rate?

IM definitely works on the Social Plan. What you can't get us any email. So if the latter is necessary, you'll need Value.
