ChubbasMummy

I think you can use both at the same time - not entirely sure as never tried, worth giving it a shot.

 

I was recently on a blogging cruise and it surprised me how little data I used :)

Thank you for your help xx

Good morning Chubbasmummy!

 

Hope you're looking forward to your cruise!

 

You can buy just the one package and share the allowance between your 2 phones.

 

On your cruise card there is an internet ID.

 

When onboard, turn off your data roaming, connect to the Splendida Wifi. Open your browser and go to exit.com - there's a section to register. Set up using your email address and a password to share between you - the first phone will then be connected ~(you may have to keep going to exit.com to stop and start the service - they do this so background apps don't use all your allowance)

 

On your partners phone - they need to go to exit.com and sign in using the email and password used to register on the first one. You give each device a name too so you can see who used all the data ;)

I really really am; we booked it over a year ago and now it's just 8 sleeps away :D

Great, that sounds ideal then. Guess it just means that we can't use our phones at the same time? Shouldn't really be an issue to be honest.

Thank you for your reply - I will save the information and refer to it when onboard :)

I'm not sure how this particular ship does, but we're going on MSC Divina, and I just purchased the package that they have for $79.90 for the 7 day cruise, and it's suppose to take care of 4 devices (even though we'll be using only 2 "our laptops".). I was told to make sure I put our cell phones on "airplane mode", because I wouldn't want my cell phones to connect to the ships wifi, because I'd be charged roaming charges and other fees from my cell phone service.

 

The MSC Travel Agent said that the wifi was not for the use of calling or texting on cell phones.

Thank you for your reply.......

I think that would be the same package that I would be looking to purchase from here. I would turn my data roaming off - it would quite literally be to use WhatsApp and Social Media Apps that's all.

Good evening all!

9 Sleeps to go until my first experience with MSC!

I am very tempted to book an internet package BUT i'm struggling with this.......

The packages offered are for 2 or 4 devices but when you go through to book it comes up with a Per Person price. My husband and I will both have our phones but surely we wouldn't have to pay per person for just 1 device each?

Has anyone booked this before?

Thank you in advance.

If you wouldn't mind adding your parking experience to your blog, i'd be very greatful to you :D

I will try and cross-post to the forum while away, but in case I have trouble you can also receive an email subscription on my actual blog. Just go to Duncan Writes – Adventures of a part-time traveller click the 'follow' button at the bottom right of the page, and enter your email address!

I'm signed up!

My husband and I are joining this ship next week on the 28th :)

Fantastic Thread!

hi everyone!

 

We have sailed with MSC twice now and loved them, we like their value for money and destinations.

 

We had been looking at stalling on the splendida from Southampton in September 2016 for a while now but the offer that came up yesterday using an online ta was just so good we had to book!

 

We are sailing on 14th September, 7 nights in Northern Europe. We got our free upgrade to a balcony, free port parking, allegro drinks package (which we upgraded to Allegrissimo for £90) and also got our MSC discount which made the price per person £614.

 

I'm very happy and really looking forward to it- in fact our friends are going to join us 😃

 

If anyone has any tips regarding the splendida I would welcome any suggestions.

Hi Mateybubbles!

I am currently waiting for a call from my TA with prices / dates & availability :D
