On the JOY, you could text freely on the ship wi-fi if you have an iPhone, and you could even text to the mainland. As long as you were in airplane mode, the ship wi-fi would work. My whole party had iPhones, so how the Android phones worked is a mystery. I guess I'll just have to wait to be on board the Emerald in a few weeks to try out their system. It is certainly not the end of the world if we have to go back to the ancient system of leaving handwritten notes. LOL. But thanks to all of you for trying to straighten out a perplexing question for me. If everyone one in your group have IPhones you will be able to use your phone’s texting feature. We do this all the time but won’t work between Apple and Android Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the bottom of your screen for “Chat” button. Be advised that when you get a message there is no audible notification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
