Jareds_mommytoo Posted March 9, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2018 on Disney we download an app and connected once we were on board it as great for messaging each other and for the kids to keep up with their friends, I can’t seem to find if hal has the same idea.

JT1962 Posted March 9, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Yes, the Holland America Navigator App. It’s not the best I have seen, but offers what most will need. It has a messaging feature, menus, daily activities, ability to check your statement, etc. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkNC Posted March 9, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 9, 2018 But it’s not an app you download. It’s accessed via the ships local area network, here are instructions from HAL’s website: Once on board, switch your device to airplane mode and connect with your ship's Wi-Fi and open your device's web browser — Navigator should open automatically. You won't incur Internet or cellular data charges when using Navigator. Discover onboard events & activities Book shore excursions Make dinner reservations Chat with fellow travelers View onboard statements Connect to paid Internet And more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAV Posted August 1, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Do you have to use Navigator in order not to incur charges, or can any browser be used (IE, Safari,etc)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scm200 Posted August 1, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 1, 2018 once you are onboard and in airplane mode you connect to ship wifi and then launch safari (or whatever android version) and the navigator site should come up automatically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare POA1 Posted August 1, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Any browser will connect you to the intranet on the ship. Just a hint: If you all have iPhones, iMessage will run on the LAN. It runs over ports 80 & 443, which - assuming you know how to connect - will run just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonyboy Posted August 1, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 1, 2018 We used navigator many times per day, every day on board. Very helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
