gazingm42 Posted November 11, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 11, 2023 So last night I purchased a cruise on seashore, since this add below was on the front msc which it still is. We purchased the "best" not the best value. So I get told today that its not included, is that correct? I don't see any details on this ad. Thanks in advance.

Stocksy82 Posted November 11, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 11, 2023 No, you needed to select best value, they clearly tell you what is included under each option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted November 11, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Apparently you chose the Best rate, not Best Value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazingm42 Posted November 11, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Unfortunately being new to MSC this was not clear since the ad said included, not available as an upgrade. I guess I live an learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted November 11, 2023 #5 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Depending on what you booked and when the cruise is, you can cancel and rebook. Your deposit should be refundable if you aren't past final payment date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean you have to register say one phone and its the only device that can access the internet or is it one of our two phones cannot simultaneously access wifi? If so, does MSC allow you to setup the one registered device as a "Hotspot" or "tether" so the other phone can access internet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted November 21, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2023 You can only access it with one device. You cannot log off and login on another device. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocksy82 Posted November 21, 2023 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2023 There have been lots of suggestions for WiFi routers on the forums if you search, can't remember them off the top of my head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted November 21, 2023 #9 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I asked a question of @DaKahunaabout what he uses. Perhaps he can come in an elaborate. I think you need to buy a two device package, log your phone into one, and the router onto the other. Others can then login to the router. But I think then you would need to be close to the router to use your device, it wandering around the ship. I would use my phone as #1, as I wander around taking pictures, checking the menus, activities, etc. in my cabin I would work off the router using my iPad and surface pro. I suppose if a second person wanted to use their phone they could carry the router around also. The one I am considering is about the same size as my iPhone SE(3). I am not an expert, just considering for now. But maybe someone over on the Cruising Technology board has good advice. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted November 21, 2023 #10 Share Posted November 21, 2023 @Essiesmom To carry the travel router around you would need an external power source. As you said, I will use two WiFi accounts. One I will use for my phone so that I have connectivity almost everywhere on the ship. The other I will use for my travel router in the stateroom and we can connect as many devices to it as we desire. You do need to be in close proximity to the travel router to be able to use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted November 21, 2023 #11 Share Posted November 21, 2023 The travel router I am considering is rechargeable with usb cable. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EM Is that a travel router or a MiFi device which uses the cellular connection for the internet side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
