BarbieGee Posted January 31, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I purchased one of the Wi Fi packages. When is the login information given out? Is it in my folio information? Must I / should I ask for this info upon check-in, or must one head for Customer Service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted January 31, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2023 You do it on the hub app with your folio number. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schoifmom Posted January 31, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Log into the HUB app while on board. Click the link to log into the internet. A page will appear asking for your folio number. It will also give you upgrade options (if applicable). Just sign in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare AtSeaWithChris Posted January 31, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2023 As soon as you’re on the ship go to wifi settings and join Carnival wifi. Then place phone in airplane mode. Then open hub app and go to internet plans and purchase it. You will put your folio number and birthdate and it will recognize that you bought it. Then you will be online.

ejnsb Posted January 31, 2023 #9 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I apologize for redirecting the question, but my intention is to use my tablet for wifi and the app on the phone for everything else (checking in for meals, etc). Easy to d9? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger0613 Posted February 1, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Everyone seems to be forgetting or not realizing that you get your folio number when you get your card. To get your folio number before that, go to Guest Services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You use to get your sail and sign card at check in (which has your folio number on it), but now you do not get anything at checkin. You go to your rooms and your sail and sign cards are outside your room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mz-s Posted February 1, 2023 #17 Share Posted February 1, 2023 People voice concerns about the cards being out in the open, but in reality it’s a good system. Saves a lot of time at check in. And I know of zero theft or other issues. Anyone who knows me knows I’m not shy to beat up on carnivals cutbacks or what not. But the way they handle s&s cards during check in is an excellent change compared to how it used to be. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are cameras everywhere and your picture is associated with your card. Only a moron would try to use a stolen sail and sign card. Yes, there are a few morons out there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will my room be ready as soon as I board? That would be where I'll be heading, certainly. 🤨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to buy anything on the ship before you can go to your room and get your card you can use the barcode at the top of your check in documents. It will work just the same as you S&S card. The only thing it won't do is open your stateroom door, you'll need your card for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However those in my party want FOOD so .... Buffet first it is! Then muster station then room. Then... PARTY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can certainly ask for your folio number when you check in at the terminal and they can write it on your boarding pass (they've done this for us for a different reason). You will still have cellular service for a while after boarding, though, so I would just hold off on connecting to the internet through the ship's wifi until I get into my room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have an unlimited data plan. I have a 5GB plan. My mom is on my account, and she doesn't even have a smartphone to be able to use the data plan. I've offered more than once to get her a smartphone, but she refuses every time. Also, I have paid to be able to use the wifi from the moment I get on the ship until the moment I get off. I want what I have paid for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had a bartender write my folio number on my boarding pass. Sounds like multiple ways to get your folio to log in right away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, then use the alternative methods of getting your folio number prior to getting your S&S cards and get logged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
