I asked the same question of SS. Here's their response: "Thank you for your e-mail!
For the computer use, you are charged from the time you log on."

RSSC charges only when you upload or download. If you have a laptop and feel like bringing it, you can work for free until you send, receive, or surf. IMHO it's sounds like a ripoff when almost everything else is included, but I guess they feel that if you can afford the tariff ...

Jim, when RSSC started selling "bundles" of time, they changed the policy. Before it was only uploading or downloading at about $.75 per minute. Now it is from the time you log on till log off. At least that's the way it's been for me for the last several cruises. $6 per hour for one hour, then as you buy more hours, price per hour goes down. So when ship is in a weak signal area, costs can escalate.

The good thing is that internet is free once you've got about 24 nights!

It's been a year since my last RSSC cruise. I can't wait to compare the two lines! Leaving on the Whisper on the 13th ---- bringing my laptop. I do have my 24 nites on Regent ---- looking forward to how they're going to make the line better; it's already pretty good!
