Sandie5 Posted January 17 #1 Share Posted January 17 I'd rather skip paying for daily wifi since I can make do without it but I'd like to check email etc. for about 10 minutes twice during the week. What is the cost of using the internet cafe for someone who doesn't have the Plus package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ombud Posted January 17 #2 Share Posted January 17 $15 each day for non-Elite passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can USE the Cafe and its computers for free if you can find apps, sites, or programs on the computer that are usable without a wifi package. Good luck with that. 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted January 17 #5 Share Posted January 17 Or you could always find free internet at most every port and log in from there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elaine5 Posted January 17 #6 Share Posted January 17 if platinum, is daily charge $7.50? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted January 17 #7 Share Posted January 17 (edited) I seem to think that the cost is $15/day if you purchase the entire cruise. I think it might be $20/day if you only purchase a single day. There are no per minute plans that I am aware of.

reedprincess Posted January 17 #8 Share Posted January 17 It's $15usd per night for one device package if bought for entire sailing. Onboard, you can buy a one time $20usd 24 hour pass. (And you can, obviously, buy that several different times). Platinum/Elite have half off internet, whether full cruise package or one 24 hour pass.. Enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandie5 Posted January 17 Author #9 Share Posted January 17 These are really expensive options. We'll just do our roaming when we get to ports. That's a shame but what can we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope restricting use to ports works out well for you. 🙏 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame but what can we do. WiFi was $20/day this past September. Instead, we used our phone in port. We have T-Mobile so, free overseas. In our case Japan. Nearly every day was a port day, so we had service. Having a good cell phone plan argues against buying WiFi, unless on a long stretch of sea days.

toofewcruises Posted January 19 #12 Share Posted January 19 By the way, Princess has just increased the internet cost for standard fare passengers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they did! If you do not have status, it will be a $30 charge for using it for one day. Yes, checking while in port is a better idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame but what can we do. As mentioned, PCL has been among the lowest cost options in the cruise line world. We always have internet for full voyage. I like to keep up on emails and other personal things. I am often checking in with tour providers, etc, or researching something for upcoming port(s). If I had to rely on using internet in port, I'd be missing out on seeing what we traveled to experience and would be quite unpopular with my wife. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that didn't age well. 💀 As mentioned elsewhere, Princess will soon be adjusting their WiFi prices to be closer to the competition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
