   October 3, 2017 ,   Cruise Industry

Carnival Corporation launched MedallionNet connectivity service which is enabled by SES Networks, saying it will deliver the “best wifi experience” in cruise industry.

MedallionNet will offer passengers an easy-to-access wifi featuring exceptional speed and bandwidth, unprecedented service consistency and pervasive stateroom signal strength.

The connectivity service will leverage the global satellite operator's medium-earth orbit and geostationary earth orbit constellations, managed services, antenna and shipboard technology to enhance the passenger experience via providing high-performance and broadband connectivity at sea.

According to Carnival, this service is enabled by software and hardware shipboard technology advances associated with Carnival Corp.'s OCEAN Experience platform based on the Ocean Medallion (passenger-owned gadget).
