Powered by Starlink, the New Wi-Fi Tier Ensures Seamless Connectivity Across All Journeys
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelers around the world are taking advantage of flexible work arrangements and making the most of their time by combining vacation and work—in fact, 74% of Americans who work from home said they would consider taking a "workcation," according to a recent Harris Poll data. With the recently announced MedallionNet Max, now is the time to book a longer voyage with Princess Cruises with the ability to stay persistently connected while exploring the world.
Available in Princess Plus and Princess Premier packages, MedallionNet Max offers enhanced onboard Wi-Fi to meet the growing demands of today's digitally connected travelers. While featured on all Princess voyages, it provides even greater flexibility on longer journeys, allowing guests to explore remote corners of the globe without fear of missing out, along with iconic ports, and historic landmarks on curated voyages from Princess, including World Cruises, Journeys Far & Away, Immersive Itineraries, and Ocean Crossings.
"Today's travelers are increasingly drawn to longer, more immersive experiences, often in remote or bucket-list destinations, without wanting to disconnect from their digital lives," said Terry Thornton, Chief Commercial Officer of Princess Cruises. "MedallionNet Max ensures that connectivity is never an issue, and when combined with the Princess Premier package, which offers unlimited beverages and specialty dining, it makes longer voyages not only feasible but incredibly rewarding."
