Our Transatlantic Cruise

While sailing on our transatlantic cruise on the Grandeur of the Seas, we had internet access through the ship's Wi-Fi access, although it wasn't cheap. We had the option of paying $0.65/minute or purchasing a pre-paid Internet package:

• 60 Minutes..... $35 or $0.58/min
• 100 Minutes....$55 or $0.55/min
• 150 Minutes....$75 or $0.50/min
• 250 Minutes....$100 or $0.40/min
• 500 Minutes.....$150 or $0.30/min

The Grandeur WiFi Hot Spot Locations include

• Viking Crown Lounge
• Solarium
• Windjammer Marketplace
• Pool Area and open areas on top of ship
• iCafe
• Card Room/Library
• Cafe Latte-tude
• Schooner Bar
• South Pacific Lounge
• Open Promenade
• Centrum

While on the ship we typically used the Wi-Fi in the Solarium or the Library. It worked well, but was slow - more like modem speed than high speed internet.

We also took advantage of Wi-Fi while in ports and regularly took our laptop with us when we left the ship so we could grab a drink and check email before we left port.
