Ahoy Wuttichai!
Great to hear that you are planning to sail with Captain Minnie! Especially with
so many great activities and entertainment included on a Disney cruise.
In a perfect vacation world, we’d all be able to totally unplug while on vacation. But that isn’t always possible.
Connect @Sea is the answer, enabling Guests to still remain connected to the mainland while off on an adventure at sea. This Disney Cruise Line wireless internet access portal boasts a variety of onboard internet packages, offering different levels of data usage based on your individual needs.
The last published rates for Connect @Sea are as follows:
-For the small package (good for occasional use), it offers 100 MB for $19.00.
-A medium sized package with 300 MB is available for $39.00, which works well for frequent use during your sailing.
-The large package of 1000 MB costs $89.00 and is best suited for longer internet sessions.
-The “Pay as You Go” rate is $0.25 per each MB. This would not be recommended in your situation since you will need higher connectivity for a video call.
Based on the fact that you need to have internet access to do a Zoom call, I think that the larger package will be your best bet (just to be on the safe side). But the people that will know best are the Connect@Sea representatives (Deck 4, Midship). I would ask what they recommend given your specific situation, and they will gladly steer you in the right direction. Connect@Sea is available on both at sea days as well as in port (though you may opt to connect while ashore using your mobile provider).
In your stateroom, you will find current rates for your specific sailing and a “how to” guide on getting all set up on Connect@Sea. Keep in mind that all pricing is subject to change without notice. So when you set foot onboard, make sure to check the rates for your specific sailing.
Now that we've talked about all the ways to stay connected, I hope you'll also find some time to unplug and unwind on your upcoming cruise! And feel free to CONNECT back with us at planDisney if you have more questions.
Happy Sailing!
