Internet package on Panama Canal cruise

I see that the 1000 mb package is $89 is that doubled on the 14 night cruise?

No, the packages do not change based on the length of the cruise, since they are based on the quantity of data consumed rather than the time spent online.

If your phone plan offers the $10 international days, you can get use those pretty wisely. For instance, as you go through the canal, you are close enough to land to pick up cell signal. When I knew we’d be able to do that for more than one day in a row, I would turn on a $10 day around noon one day and it would last until noon the next day.

I highly recommend reading the online tutorials on various blogs for how to conserve data by shutting down background processes on your phone that use a lot of data. I have never paid for data on a DCL cruises despite checking and responding to work emails every day, sending photos to my mom throughout the cruise, and catching up on the news on my nytimes app. The free 50MB you get by logging in on the first day goes a long way if you have locked down your automatic data processes on your phone and remember to sign out (and double check you are signed out) each time you are done with using data.
