There was a computer room near reception that was a bit like a fancier version of a university computer lab in the 1990s (which is the last time I was in one!). I had some success but also experienced some frustrations. I used the Internet on a cruise ship (not Holland America) in and around Norway and Iceland in the summer of 2007. So what's my real question? I guess I'd like to know details about your experiences using your laptop on a cruise ship - bonus points if it's Holland America! posted by thilmony to Travel & Transportation (9 answers total) Is the dial up really DIAL UP? As in, do I need an ISP with a dial up account or is there something on the ship they let you use?Īnother site says "direct dial to your Internet access provider through your laptop is very expensive possibly at $10 + per minute." - so maybe I should just upload to flickr at port? Higher bandwidth than email or browsing the is that possible from the rooms on this "dial up"? On my my last vacation, I uploaded photos daily to flickr. If it costs too much I'll probably wait until we are at one of the ports. I'd also like to check email - I use gmail so that should be fine. I am bringing my laptop with, for copying my digital photos off the camera, itunes, etc. This website talks about the wifi in parts of the ship for a fee, or some computer room with pc's on the Internet for a fee. I'm leaving Saturday on a Holland America cruise.
