Cell phone use onboard

For those with questions regarding cell phone use onboard Carnival ships I have created a photo gallery with a copy of the pamphlet aboard Carnival Fantasy February 2009 called "Keeping you connected at sea".

Gallery is called Connected@Sea and can be found at

It should answer many questions folks have on this topic.

You should, of course, check with your carrier about any additional charges.

I have uved my cell phone on Carnival , Celebrity and RCCL and I found the charges to be quite reasonable.

IM still in shock over my last cell phone bill, from your cruise, my idiot family decided to text each other while onboard ship. Stupid things like "Where are you"?" Come to the cabin" ETC ETC. I told them to lock those stupid phones up in the safe, but did they listen to dear ole mom? NOPE!! My cell phone bill was an insane $598.68. Over 8 days!( 3 ppl)! Thats a aprice of 1-2pp cruise. Guess whos staying home next time????

WOW! at $.50 a text that's still a lot of texts! I informed my family while we were on our last cruise to text once or twice a day to Mom and Dad as we were on the cruise alone. It was 2.99 or 3.99 a min. for calls but 0.50 per text.
