You can enjoy Cellular at Sea once the cruise ship reaches international waters, and your phone will display “Cellular at Sea” or “901” to indicate that service is available – just make sure to keep Airplane Mode OFF and International Data is ON!
Calls, texts, and data are transmitted over satellite from ship to land. Some devices may require the Wi-Fi setting be turned OFF to enable data.
Use your phone as normal to make and receive calls, texts, and use data services. Cellular service may experience temporary disruptions as the ship enters or exits ports or during occasional satellite outages. This is normal.
Service may experience disruptions as the ship moves closer to land or potential satellite outages.
