What you can do

Three per-person tiers: Social at $20.40 per day covers social apps only; Value at $23.80 per day adds email and general browsing; Premium at $25.50 per day adds streaming and video chat such as Netflix and Zoom where coverage allows. A separate Multi-Device Premium plan at $90 per day covers up to four devices.

Good to know

Listed prices are the discounted pre-cruise rates; buying on board costs more. Carnival does not state a device count for the single-device tiers or confirm Starlink on its own pages, so both are left unstated here.
