Clownfish Cruiser Posted January 2, 2017 #26 Share Posted January 2, 2017 [quote name=GRAYTech;51882379Another option is Verizon's "travel pass". For $10 per 24 hours you use your domestic plan with no additional charges beyond the $10. This DOES NOT apply when you are connected to the ship' date=' only while in port. So depending on how much you might use your phone in port the travel pass might be a better deal. I looked into this and posted the results a while ago - http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2404860 I have used the travel pass in Mexico and there it truly was $2 for 24 hours. I have not used it while on other Caribbean islands but I'm hoping it works as advertised.[/quote] I went through Verizon's international planner on line, and the pay as you go was recommended for our needs. We did use Travel Pass for Mexico, which is a good deal at $2 for 24 hours, and only activates if you actually use it. Thanks for posting! I'm hoping to use my phone zero on this trip, but you never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted January 3, 2017 #27 Share Posted January 3, 2017 If anyone has T-Mobile, they have free texting and data in over 120 countries, and phone calls are 20 cents per minute. Love this service - we used it on our 49 day cruise around South America with no problems. We have also used our T-Mobile in Europe and Asia. To be sure however that there will be no charges, we first check in port the text message from T-Mobile to confirm the free text message and $0.20/min phone call.
