Yes, I have often taken my laptop with me to write articles and store photos. If you are on a ship or cruiseline that has internet access from your cabin then you will need your laptop. If all you ar4e going to use it for is occasional internet access then you may wish to consider just using the internet cafe.

do you have to pay for the internet access in the rooms..is there access or do you have to take your laptop to the internet cafe and do you have to pay their high prices for access?
