NCL upgrades to super-fast wi-fi
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings is to deliver high-speed wi-fi across its three brands.
Guests on Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises will benefit from quadrupled bandwidth by July.
NCL said the move ‘meets the rising internet expectations of cruise guests’.
To support the new wifi network, multi-million dollar bandwidth and performance-boosting technology upgrades will be installed fleet-wide before the end of June.
Guests on all Norwegian, Oceania and Regent ships can expect to experience the new, super-fast wi-fi powered by SpeedNet, which is owned by terrestrial and satellite communications company EMC, by July 2016.
