Staying connected at sea matters more than ever—whether it’s checking email, staying active on social media, streaming, working remotely, messaging family back home, or simply uploading vacation photos. Many people board Royal Caribbean cruises with multiple devices—phones, tablets, laptops, smartwatches—and naturally ask one crucial question:

Can I switch devices while using Royal Caribbean Wi-Fi?

The answer is YES, you can switch devices on Royal Caribbean’s VOOM internet, but how you do it, how many devices you can connect, and whether switching is unlimited or restricted depends on the package you purchased. Understanding how device switching works can save frustration, prevent connection blocks, and help you make the most of onboard Wi-Fi—especially if you travel with family or work remotely at sea.

This long, in-depth guide explains every detail about device switching on Royal Caribbean WiFi—rules, steps, hacks, troubleshooting, pricing, pros/cons, and expert tips guests wish they knew earlier.

How Royal Caribbean VOOM Wi-Fi Works in Simple Terms

Royal Caribbean offers VOOM—one of the fastest cruise internet services at sea. Rather than selling internet based on data usage, VOOM packages are sold by number of devices connected at the same time.

You can own many devices—but only the purchased number can be online simultaneously.

Examples:

Internet PackageMax Devices Online at OnceSwitching Allowed?

1-device VOOM Surf1 device at a timeYes, manually switch/log out

1-device VOOM Surf + Stream1 device at a timeYes

2-device Surf/StreamUp to 2 devicesYes

4-device Surf/StreamUp to 4 devicesYes

If you buy a 1-device plan, you can log into any device—but only one can be active at a time. Others must be logged out first.

A 2-device package means two devices can use the internet simultaneously—and so on.

In short: You can switch anytime, unless your plan limits simultaneous connections.

How to Switch Devices on Royal Caribbean Wi-Fi Step-By-Step

Switching between devices is simple, but the process is slightly different depending on the ship, portal interface, and device model.

Here is the universal method:

1. Connect to Royal Caribbean ship Wi-Fi network– Usually named royal-wifi, voom, or similar.

2. Open your web browser– The login page loads automatically. If not, type:logon.com or login.com

3. Sign in using your access code or room details

4. When switching device → open Wi-Fi login page again

5. Click "Logout," "Disconnect," or "Switch Device"

6. Log in on the new device using the same username/pass or access code

Within seconds, the connection transfers smoothly.

You must log out on Device A before Device B can connect—unless you have a multiple-device package.

Do You Need to Pay Extra to Switch Devices?

No.

Switching devices is free as long as you remain within the number of devices allowed by your plan. If you purchased a 1-device plan, you can use 5 devices—but only 1 at a time.

You do not need to buy another plan just to alternate between your phone and laptop.

No hidden fees. No penalty.

You only pay extra if:

• You want more devices connected simultaneously• You upgrade to Surf + Stream from basic Surf• You switch to full voyage package after buying day-by-day WiFi

Switching itself is always allowed.

<br>

What Happens If You Try Connecting Too Many Devices?

When more devices attempt login than your plan permits, you may see messages like:

• Too Many Devices Logged In• Maximum Device Limit Reached• Another Device Must Disconnect First

Simply return to the last device used, open login page, and press Log Out.

Still stuck?

Try:

1. Put device in airplane mode → reconnect

2. Restart Wi-Fi connection

3. Clear browser cookies & cache

4. Reboot device

Worst case: visit Wi-Fi help desk onboard—they reset logins instantly.

<br>

Can You Share Your Wi-Fi With Another Person?

Yes—but only by switching logins, not by using two devices at once unless your package allows it.

Example:

You and your partner want to share one Wi-Fi plan.

Option A – One device online at a time(you log out → they log in → you swap later)

Option B – Buy 2-device plan so both stay online together

Sharing is allowed—no rule says one package = one person. It simply restricts simultaneous connections.

<br>

Which Package Is Best If You Want Frequent Device Switching?

Choose based on how many devices must stay connected at the same time.

1. 1-Device Surf + StreamBest for solo travelers, can switch when needed.

2. 2-Device PackageIdeal for couples switching minimally.

3. 4-Device PlanPerfect for families/multi-device users.

If switching between phone and laptop every hour, a one-device plan is fine. If you want streaming on one while messaging on another—upgrade.

<br>

How Fast Is Royal Caribbean Wi-Fi When Switching Devices?

Speed varies by:

• Ship’s satellite/Starlink coverage• Number of users onboard• Package type (Surf vs Surf+Stream)• Weather & sea location

Once device switching completes, speed is not affected just because you changed devices. VOOM does not penalize switch frequency.

Streaming, Zoom calls, and video uploads run better on:

VOOM Surf + Stream

The basic Surf plan is better suited to:

• Email• Messaging• Browsing• Social media light use

Choose based on need—not just price.
