    Carnival Cruise Line has launched a new free mobile app. Currently only available for use onboard the Carnival Breeze. The app contains numerous features including a “chat” feature which allows onboard guests to messages each other for a flat fee of $5 for the entire cruise. For complete details including additional screen shots of the new "Carnival HUB" application go here: Carnival Hub Application

    Carnival is also currently piloting enhanced Internet access onboard the Carnival Freedom, Carnival Breeze and Carnival Sunshine that dramatically increases bandwidth and speed and also includes a first-ever social media package providing unlimited access to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and other popular sites for a fee of $5 per day or $25 per voyage during the testing period.

    “Consumers expect a high level of connectivity even while on vacation and these new enhancements provide our guests not only with helpful tools for getting the most out of their cruise but also a convenient and cost-effective way for keeping in touch with their family and friends while on board,” said Gus Antorcha, Carnival’s senior vice president of guest commerce. “We recognize the increasingly important role that technology plays in people’s daily lives and the launch of this application and new Internet packages provides us with a strong platform for introducing additional innovations and ways to use technology to enhance our guest experience even further.”

      Just got off of the Sunshine. Love having the wifi availability for social media. It was great! This needs to be on ALL ships!

      We were recently on The Breeze, and like the app. Don't have to carry the daily newsletter anymore, it's all on the phone. And it was easy to chat with family members onboard, just have to get their Chat ID. Only problem we had was our cabin was in the back of the ship, it did not work in our room.

      We were on the Freedom in November and were not happy with HUB. Messages were delayed hours. Some in our group would get it right away and others much too late. The slow rotated so it had nothing to do with the phone. Very disappointed.
