Doesnt cost a nickel......or a dime. 😃

Ocean Medallion IS their current program. 

They use the medallion to assume are going to buy something when you arrive in a bar.....etc., if you don't think it is a money making approach you have your head in the sand... even our room steward said as much so... when we were on our last cruise...

It is costing millions of $$$ to implement.

 

The cost is built into the cruise fares which are significantly higher than a couple of years ago.

It's called staying ahead of the c-o-m-p-e-t-i-t-i-o-n. 

 

What isn't higher that it was a "couple of years ago"?

From what I saw reading up on MedallionNet, it's like the Beverage Packages.  You can either buy it on board the first day or pre-cruise or not have internet.  (Unless using free Platinum/Elite minutes.)  I don't think you can buy by the minute with MedallionNet.  Every package is unlimited and they differ from each other by the speeds offered.

Thanks for that info.  I was hoping to use onboard credit to buy it so I didn't want to pre-purchase the MedallionNet.
