verizon cell phone/data access

[sbyczko]

are you able to use your verizon cell phone on Carnival ships at sea in particular Freedom?

 

also will my email/data package work at sea?

 

Last year on Mariner of the Seas we were able to use cell phones at sea.

Would also like to know the cost of using Verizon phones at sea.

I can't tell you about costs for Verizon but I can tell you that ALL Carnival ships are equipped with Cellular At Sea systems to allow communications via cell phones.

Data usage with Sprint, my carrier, was spotty at best. My calls were $2.49/min on board. Best to wait 'til you're in a port of call...
