Keep your eyes open for extra minute specials on internet packages. Usually there is an offer the day of boarding.

Be aware that the Internet connection is a single satellite connection, shared by all passengers, crew and official ship's business. It is very slow...don't be surprised if it eats up 30 minutes just to check your email.

 

If you are going to send emails, if using your own PC, compose them offline and then copy / paste or send them once connected. Like to old dial up days!!

 

Have a great cruise.
