Internet

[kaylajordan]

Does anyone know how much the internet cost unlimited for the whole week?

[Dave]

When we were on the Freedom last year they had discontinued the unlimited internet option.

[kaylajordan]

Ok thanks! How much is it per min?

[AllyGirl]

I think it's like 50 cent a min.

[AllyGirl]

and HEY YOU'RE ON VACATION you don't need the internet!

[kaylajordan]

well the 30th is my b-day and my papaw is sick and so we were wanting to stay in touch some how.

[Dave]

Not cheap. 50 cents per minute is the base charge as I recall, although there are packages of various numbers of minutes that are cheaper. RCI had an unlimited internet for $100 but ended it - at least on the Freedom - prior to it's first revenue voyage last June. But I have read where it is still available on other RCI ships. Indeed, they may have it back on the Freedom by now but I don't know. I figured they stopped it before the inaugural voyage just to avoid the internet access being overwhelmed and crashing - not a good thing to happen on a first voyage with paying passengers.
