Still a free day.

 

Alternatively, you can use that amount off a package.  (it's not the exact same amount on every ship.  $23.99-25.99)

We did a b2b2b in May and received one free day each week as diamonds.

Also it is one free day for each diamond member in your cabin.

Note that the free day is for "Surf", not "Surf & Stream".

Not a question. 

 

A statement.

Ah, is misread it 🙂. I guess I’m not awake yet 😉. I read “Is it...” not “It is”...

The free 24 hrs was actually extended on Explorer of the Seas. It should have expired at 08.00 but I went o line at 06.00 hoping to make the the most of my last 2 hrs, but I couldn’t make any connection.

i was in the dining room at 09.00 and I suddenly felt some e mails come in ( my phone was in my pocket).. This connection lasted for another couple of hours.

How do you get credit for the free day off a package?   Can you only do this if you purchase the Internet once on board?  Or can you get it if you purchase the Internet package on-line prior to the cruise?

Only on board.

Also, you can only purchase one "account" per person.  

I like to share a multi-device package with others to get it at a cheaper rate for everyone (I've been averaging $7/day/device that way, which is very reasonable IMO).  On Mariner last week, I wanted to get one more device for the cruise and use my discount, and it wouldn't let me b/c I already had an internet account set up from my Cruise Planner purchase.  

I ended up going to the Voom desk and I had to buy the extra device's access through the account of my roommate (who was Gold), and then the Voom person manually applied the $24.99 credit later that night.

Thank you all for your replies...very helpful info.

If you haven't already purchased internet, it will ask you when you log in if you want your free day or your credit for a package. We have rarely used it lately since they started offering the 4 device deal for under $8 a day per device. We had a 10 night cruise last and we could stream Netflix or anything in our room in the evenings.

With 2 diamond members sailing do they allow you to apply both Diamond internet credits to a package for 2 devices?

No, only one discount per package.  However you can apply two discounts to two one-device packages.

Got it and that's kind of what I thought. I appreciate the confirmation! 🙂

We find the best use is to apply 1 credit against a 24hr period, and then apply the 2nd credit to a package for the remaining duration of the cruise.

Of course the remaining duration package cost drops every day as the cruise progresses.

Yes!!! I just did the math on what you mentioned and that is likely what we will do as well.

Thank you! 🙂

We just got off the Allure on Sunday.   Attached are the Diamond perks, including Internet.

Looks like the internet price increase to $25 has not happened yet.

I forgot, what ship had the higher prices that you posted?

Adventure, but I've seen at least two others since then with the higher price.

Perhaps they are rolling out the increased prices ship by ship.
