Review summary

Great cruise from every aspect. Beautiful ship. The only negative is the internet and wifi service. Wifi not available in may part so the ship and not reliable. The app is not user friendly and confusing. Also, the 150 minutes (part of the Free at Sea pkg) is a tricky one because if you don't logout every time, it keep eating up your minutes.

Ship tip

make sure to buy the Free at Sea package. The internet and WIFI was the worst part as it was not reliable and the Mobile APP is poorly designed

When you arrived in Alaska, did you get 5G from your phone data?

Appreciate your detailed summary. Glad you enjoyed your cruise. I’ve never seen good Wi-Fi on a cruise.
