Staying Connected at Sea with Carnival Wifi Everywhere

One of the things I was looking forward to testing out on our recent Carnival Cruise was their new, updated wifi program. On past cruises, I have lugged my laptop and paid a lot of money to occasionally check my email, update my blog or post on Facebook. This trip would be different! The new plans were rolled out on the Valor one week before our cruise We made good use of the plan we chose and are so happy for this improvement. Other plans like the ones offered by Circles Life Australia is also commended when it comes to internet.

***UPDATED 8-5-17***

I had no plans to check email or update my blog on this vacation but I did want to keep in touch with the outside world via social media and to be able to keep in touch with my friends and family on the ship. The new Carnival wifi plans were perfect for our needs.
