CARNIVAL INTROS APP; UPS INTERNET ACCESS

Carnival Cruise Line understands that even though its passengers may be hundreds of miles at sea, they still want to stay connected. We love our vacations but are loathe to give up our phones and the World Wide Web.

To those points, Carnival has launched a new free mobile app that provides vacationers aboard Carnival Breeze a variety of useful features, including the ability to “chat” with other guests throughout the voyage for a flat fee of $5 for the entire cruise.

At the same time, Carnival is enhancing Internet access aboard Carnival Freedom, Carnival Breeze and Carnival Sunshine that greatly increases bandwidth and speed and also includes "a first-ever social media package providing unlimited access to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and other popular sites for a fee of just $5 per day or $25 per voyage during the testing period."
