wifi in mariner suites?

[jamimi0]

I just wrote the Computer Ops on the Mariner to find out as I want to know too. I am going on the Grand Circle Asia in the fall.

 

As to taking a laptop, I think that it is a good idea even if no wifi in suites yet. Computer room can be crowded, although less so on shorter cruise.

Two weeks ago they were still working on wifi on Mariner - it was available in the area near the computer room but NOT in any of the suites. They promise it will be done soon - keep checking it's bound to happen eventually!

 

I took my laptop and enjoyed using it in the new coffee corner...photos of the recently refurbished Mariner are posted here:

Hi J***

 

Good to hear from you.

 

To answer your question, yes we now have WiFi in all the guest suites as well as in the new coffee bar on deck 6 so you should have no problem connecting.
