Getting ready to take a cruise on the Carnival Holiday. Does anyone know specific locations for WiFi service on board? Also, is there a charge for the service? If so, how much?

I don't know the areas of the ship that are covered but...

 

There is definitely a charge:

Internet Café Price List :

To utilize the Internet service, the below options are available. Please note that the Internet pricing options are identical, whether an Internet Café terminal is utilized, or a laptop. All Internet access charges will be billed directly to the guest's onboard “Sail & Sign” Account. In addition, when using a Café terminal, files can be downloaded as "read only" but cannot be saved, since a floppy disk cannot be inserted into the PC's. Users who bring their own laptop can read and save files without restriction.

An initial one-time Activation Fee of $3.95 applies to each user.

A basic time charge of $0.75 per minute (“Pay-As-You-Go”) is available. Minutes are rounded to the next full minute.

Discounted "Time Plans" offer guests the opportunity to enjoy a lower per-minute rate. These Time Plans do not have to be used in a single session and can be used anytime throughout the cruise until debarkation; No refund for unused minutes; Upgrading selected pricing option is not available. Plans are subject to change.

 

Cruises 6 days in length and longer:

• 100 minutes for $55.00 ($0.55 per minute)
  
• 250 minutes for $100.00 ($0.40 per minute)
  

Cruises less than 6 days in length:

• 30 minutes for $16.50 ($0.55 per minute)
  
• 60 minutes for $24.00 ($0.40 per minute)
  

If your personal laptop does not have built in Wi-Fi, you can rent a Wirless Radio Card on board. To rent a Wireless Radio Card for your personal laptop, the rate is $10.00 per day, optional insurance is $3.00 per day. This allows guests to connect their laptops to the ship's wireless signal and is in addition to the Internet price plans.

 

A limited number of laptops are available for rent for an additional $10.00 per day, or free with a Time Plan purchase; and optional insurance is also available.
