Thank you, I see how it works now.

IOS 10 and prior would turn off Wifi and Bluetooth, but you can immediately turn those back on while in airplane mode. IOS 11 altered airplane mode so only the cellular is disabled.

Am I doing something wrong, when I put my iPhone 7 in airplane mode it turns off wifi? And when in airplane mode I turn on wifi airplane mode goes off. My carrier is AT&T.

If you put your phone in airplane mode and turn on wifi for wifi calling, then you will not receive a cell phone bill. To use wifi calling, both your carrier and your phone must support it. You also need to set it up - best done before you leave home. I have an iPhone 7 and AT&T and it works fine. I can call someone in the US from anywhere in the phone using wifi, and AT&T charges nothing - the only chage is for the cost of the wifi.

 

I have used wifi calling with no probems and no charges at many hotels in Europe that provided free wifi. I also have used wifi calling on Princess ships using the Princess wifi minutes. The only cost would be for the Princess wifi plan, and I never used more than my free Platinum minutes - so no cost.

 

With Princess wifi, you can't leave your phone connected all the time - you would quickly use up all of your minutes. But it is easy to log in to make a few phone calls and then to log out.

We rcvd the email, called and got hooked up on Friday. The woman we spoke to said only 160 cabins would have *****, so it should be interesting at least :cool:
