I just bought the key too, again, we were getting voom, nice lunch when we board instead of lining up for the buffet, having not to drag my wine, soda, carry on around till the rooms ready! Plus can board early, not wait in lines, breakfast and off the ship when you want, etc the math works, got the $16.99.

You're correct in your assessment of savings with the 2-device Surf and Stream package. Since we were only planning on getting the one device plan, I just factored that into the cost of ours. Enjoy The Key and happy cruising!

It makes sense to me.  The math works.  It amazes me the number of people who have decided The Key is not worth the money.  I am of the feeling it is worth the money if you value your time and the other things it offers.   We think The Key is worth it and we bought it for $21.99.  I am hoping there is a further sale but if there is not I am fine with what I paid.  I wish the people who have never used The Key because they don't think it is worth it would stop judging those of us that do.  Everyone is different.  What I value is different from what someone else does.  I get it.  However, your opinion on the value is not relevant if you haven't experienced the benefit.

In the end, the only person to whom you need to justify your purchase of anything is you.  If it makes sense to you, then you've made a good decision.

Considering that we always purchase Voom for both myself and the wife on each cruise, and that the cost of Voom makes up the major portion of the cost of THE KEY, for us the cost of THE KEY makes a lot of sense.  If you do not value having internet access for your entire cruise, then perhaps THE KEY is not for you.  Also remember, The Key is only available to a small number of guests....I mean, if everyone had it, what good would the exclusivity be?

I think like others have said, what it's worth, or the value of The Key depends on what it's worth to you personally. We have no interest in reserved time for rock climbing and things like that on Rhapsody. So that has very little value to us, even if we were on a larger ship with Flowrider and such, those days are behind us. The other benefits seemed worth it to us when the price hit $16.99, but not before that. Since this a fairly new program, it will be interesting to see how it fairs in the future. Being that we are still 11 months from sailing, I find it interesting that the price has dropped from $24.99 at the start to it's current price of $16.99. Seems like a steep price drop so far out.

Good point! We are going on our first cruise and are 28 and 25 so the rock climbing and flow rider times will be good for us since we will want to do those activities.
