enchic21 Posted January 30, 2006 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Does anyone know if there will be cell phone service on the ship for Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Princess cruiseline? Anyone know the roaming charge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysalis Posted January 30, 2006 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2006 there is only cell phone service on, or very close to an island..and the charges depend on your provider....you will not get service out at sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamer333 Posted January 30, 2006 #3 Share Posted January 30, 2006 When I did the Eastern Caribbean cruise, my phone worked in the ports, and I did not receive roaming charges. (I think I had Sprint at the time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryPoppinz Posted January 30, 2006 #4 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I've never had trouble with Sprint in St. Thomas (no roaming - but this may depend on your plan?) I haven't ever tried in St. Martin or Princess Cays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enchic21 Posted January 30, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Thanks! Hmmm... so no cell service on board at all... I noticed that some ships do have cell service like the Royal Caribbean and Celebrity, but no Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry ATL Posted January 31, 2006 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Princess does not have cell phone service on board. Here is a list of ships that are in service for cell phone service: http://www.cellularatsea.com/shipsinservice.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted January 31, 2006 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2006 You will need to check with your cell carrier. I was able to get service in St. Thomas and San Juan with Sprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
