Princess Cruises has introduced MedallionNet Max, a premium Wi-Fi service designed to cater to the increasing digital demands of modern travelers. This new service tier offers prioritized access to the fastest available bandwidth, which is typically provided by Starlink.

To access MedallionNet Max, guests must book either the Princess Plus or Princess Premier package, which bundle together various amenities and services. MedallionNet Classic, the existing Wi-Fi service, will continue to be offered and is available for purchase separately.

Princess Cruises has been a leader in onboard Wi-Fi technology, utilizing a variety of satellite constellations to provide consistent and reliable internet access across its fleet. By offering two tiers of Wi-Fi service, the cruise line aims to enhance the overall guest experience and attract a wider range of travelers.

What to know:

• A la carte pricing for MedallionNet Classic remains $24.99 per day for a single device plan and $44.99 per day for a multi-device plan.
• Guests will not have to do anything different onboard to access the different services.
• The appropriate service level will be assigned based on each guest’s package, as indicated on the Princess app.
• A single guest network will remain, reducing confusion related to network names or any complications added to the onboard experience.

To preview the new service tier, Princess Cruises will host the first-ever land/sea custom UGC competition, leveraging a custom Minecraft world – Princess Cruises Nautical Quest. The August 7 match up will feature 32 of the world’s most popular UGC players, with eight of the gamers – Shubble, Krinios, Fruitberries, vGumiho, Sneegsnag, JimmyHere, Smajor, and Hannahxxrose – competing aboard Enchanted Princess in the Caribbean against 24 others who will play from home as millions of fans tune in to watch online.

“Just like we did when we launched MedallionNet Classic almost seven years ago, Princess continues to ensure guests have access to highest performing connectivity available at industry leading value,” said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises. “By including MedallionNet Max in our incredible bundles we are guaranteeing the best possible onboard experience with the best value anywhere in the world as our guests explore over 330 destinations via our world-class globally deployed fleet.”
