I am planning for a cruise and I was wondering if you can use a calling card from the phones in the rooms. I will be traveling with Royal Caribbean cruise lines. I know that you can use their phones to make calls but it costs almost $8.00 a minute. Any information would be appreciated.
Yes, you can use calling cards on the cruise ship. To find more information go to the site below or contact your local travel agent.
Boy, that would be a great idea. However, the answer is NO.
The cruiselines have you by the short and curlies when it comes to making phone calls from the ship. It is around $8 per minute plus a set-up fee. No calling cards can be used.
Their Internet rates for email is just about as expensive. You are charged around 75 cents per minute or you can buy a package of 30, 60, or 100 minutes and the per minute rate goes down slightly.
You can also wait until you get to a port and make your phone calls using a calling card when you are on shore. You can also find very inexpensive Internet shops to access your email. I used one in Mexico at the rate of $1 per hour. I was on it for a half hour and was charged 50 cents. I bought a beer with the other 50 cents.
tbugs is right, you will be held by the short & curlies while you are on the ship. Many of the cruise ships have started having a cell installed on them called Cellular@Sea, it works with many of the cellular carriers but still is a per minute charge ($2.99 for Sprint), that may be an alternative to you.
