swin26 Posted August 28, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 28, 2019 The promotion is “Premium Internet Package for 2”. Does anyone know if each person would get his/her own package or if for 2 means sharing for 2 people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwb101 Posted August 28, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) The Internet packages are for two people, but only one device can be used at one time. You can use several devices (we have two phones and two tablets), but only singly. Unless you intend to stream video, you may be better off waiting until you're on the ship and signing up for the Surf package, which is cheaper. It excludes streaming, but includes most other sites. Good luck. Edited August 28, 2019 by kwb101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigi1977 Posted August 28, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 28, 2019 On my booking it says we BOTH get the internet package. Just like we BOTH get prepaid service charges. So - no it’s not shared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swin26 Posted August 28, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Thanks. My booking just says Premium Internet for 2. With the free internet, free gratuities, and the combined amount of OBC from HAL and the big box store, we may actually have trouble spending all of our OBC. I may need to pack extra light and buy new clothes from Talbots and Chicos on board. Good problem to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just off the Rotterdam, clothing selection in the shops was pathetic. And the TP-Link router worked great for us. Just had to remember to log in each time we took the phones/ipad out of the room.

zelker Posted August 29, 2019 #15 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Instead of getting a router, can we enable hotspot on an iPhone and then access the internet from both iPads simultaneously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to book a cruise at the big box store but it doesn't mention free gratuities, only Explore 4. Do I have to book through Hal's site to get the gratuities? Thanks for the help, I've only had 1 cruise so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swin26 Posted August 29, 2019 Author #17 Share Posted August 29, 2019 No, you need to let the big box store person helping you. Don’t do it on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
