Oceania Cruises Now Offers Complimentary Internet Access to Concierge Level Guests
This is the first time the upper-premium cruise line has offered a free Internet program, with the new benefit commencing during the 2015 winter season.

As part of the program, guests booked in Owner's, Vista and Oceania suites will receive unlimited complimentary Internet access to enjoy throughout their voyage. Guests booked in Penthouse suites or Concierge Level staterooms will receive blocks of complimentary Internet time based on cruise length, starting with 200 minutes for a seven-night cruise and extending to 500 minutes for voyages over 16 nights.

Being an upper-premium brand, Oceania Cruises ships feature a larger number of Concierge Level and above accommodations, which means this free Internet program will cover more than 55 percent of all guests sailing on Marina and Riviera, and nearly half of all guests sailing on Regatta, Insignia and Nautica. Guests will be able to take advantage of the free Internet either through the ship's Wi-Fi system or at the Oceania@Sea Internet café. Oceania Cruises recently upgraded the Wi-Fi system across the fleet to increase bandwidth and provide connectivity throughout the entire ship, including all public spaces, outdoor decks and all suites and staterooms.

“Oceania Cruises is committed to providing our guests with an extraordinary cruise vacation for an incomparable value, so we're excited to add free Internet to an already long list of included amenities such as complimentary dining experiences at our exquisite specialty restaurants,” said Kunal S. Kamlani, president of Oceania Cruises. “We know our guests want to stay connected with friends and family while exploring the world with Oceania Cruises. Now, as guests are enjoying the Olife onboard, they will be able to freely share cherished vacation memories with loved ones back home from the comfort of the ship.”

The complimentary Internet rollout will be staggered across the fleet, tied to the official start of each ship's winter schedule. The first sailings will be Nautica on 25 October 2015, followed by Marina on 3 November 2015, Regatta on November 2015, Riviera on 2 December 2015, and Insignia on 4 January 2016, when it begins its third 180-day Around the World voyage. Complete itinerary details for the winter schedule will be released and available to book at 8:30 a.m. on 17 September 2014.

Oceania Cruises' signature cruise fares include an abundance of complimentary amenities such as unlimited soft drinks, coffee beverages, juices and bottled water. Guests can savour the finest cuisine at sea at any of the ships' specialty restaurants without any supplemental dining charges.
