Crystal Cruises has announced the newest benefit to its All Inclusive luxury cruise experience: Free Wi-Fi for Crystal Society members, beginning late-2014.
Effective with Crystal Serenity’s 19 September New England/Canada sailing and Crystal Symphony’s 15 October Panama Canal cruise, each Crystal Society guest will receive 60 minutes of complimentary internet access for every day of the cruise. For example, a 10-day cruise will offer 600 free minutes per person (or 1,200 free minutes per couple), a 12-day cruise offers 720 free minutes per person (or 1,440 free minutes per couple), a 14-day cruise offer 840 free minutes (or 1,680 free minutes per couple), etc., which can be used any time throughout the voyage.
Society members can use the new complimentary access time wirelessly via iPad, iPhone, laptop or other wireless device or on Crystal’s own Computer University@Sea 27” dual-compatible iMac computers. A multi-million dollar Wi-Fi upgrade rolled out in recent months helps guests enjoy maximum onboard connectivity.
“We are continually refining our all-inclusive experience to offer an array of choices for our global guests. Since the majority of our
guests are repeaters, we opted to expand our Crystal Society offerings to thank our loyal patrons,” said Edie Bornstein, Crystal’s president. “Whether they are on board for a second 10-day getaway or on their 20th time for an expansive 108-day World Cruise, travellers today appreciate staying plugged in. By adding this coveted benefit to our All Inclusive experience, repeat cruisers in all stateroom and suite categories have one more reason to choose Crystal as their home base while traveling the world in the finest of luxury and ease.”
All full revenue guests who have completed their first Crystal cruise automatically become Crystal Society members and can take advantage of this benefit on all subsequent Crystal voyages.
Guests wishing to purchase additional minutes for US$0.75 per minute can do so without an activation fee. Internet packages that reduce the per minute charge are also available.
