Sailing around the same date you are. From the advice I've read on this board, there is literally no way to anticipate when or if prices will fluctuate, so the best option if you know you're going to purchase that package is to buy now, then if it does go down, you can cancel and rebook. This way you lock in the price and are safeguarded any potential increases.

There are a lot of conversations about voom with texting and calling but I can not find any about emails. I have purchased voom for our cruise next week and I what to know that this will work with sending and receiving emails with no additional charges from my carrier? Thank you in advance.
Email is done via wifi, so I don't know why you would be charged extra for any "data" from an email. You can do several things over wifi while your phone is on airplane mode that do not eat up your data, including sending emails, surfing the internet, streaming, emails, imessages, etc. To my knowledge you should be good to email as much as you want without having to worry about a data usage charge from your carrier, as long as you are connected to the ship's wifi.

It's hard to say if the price will drop. It's all supply and demand and that is dependent on how well RC conveys the narrative of The Key being "limited." As posted on other threads, the fact that the embarkation lunch for the The Key, has been moved from Chops to the MDR is an indication about the numbers being sold. If people jump on it, the price won't drop, if not then it might. If you feel that the perks are worth the current price to you, I'd buy it and don't look back. If the price drops in the future, that's a bonus for you. If people buy it early though, to lock it in, that in itself may prevent it from dropping in the future.
Happy Cruising!
Agree 100%. It's definitely a gamble, but that's part of the fun of this whole cruise planning adventure (to which I am a complete rookie - luckily I found this blog which is a haven of information).

Booked on a Symphony cruise next May 2020 and the current price of this perk is $37.99, which seems astronomical compared to what others have gotten it for. May purchase then rebook if the price drops, but still iffy on doing so. I know there's no real coherent logic or way to estimate what this program will cost because of the fluctuation between cruises and ships, so my efforts may be futile.
To me this means cruises will not start when the 30 days is up

Are you serious or is this hyperbole? My sarcasm meter is on quarantine, but you realize up to 60 million people died in WWII? Comparing this to the deadliest war ever which spanned over a 6 year period is downright insane. Have you been checked for the virus?
