Will my cell phone work? Is there Wi-Fi?
Cruise cabins are equipped with a telephone that offer direct dialing (ship to shore) for a charge. Internet access is available onboard in the Internet Café and via WIFI throughout the ship.
Wifi Plans:
Royal Caribbean offers unlimited plans that can be purchased onboard the ship or pre-purchased prior to the cruise. VOOM is the name of Royal’s high speed internet service, the fastest internet at sea.

What is the difference between the 2 packages, SURF and SURF + STREAM?
SURF is good enough for guests looking to simply surf the web, stay in touch via email and share their vacation photos on social media. SURF + STREAM is ideal for those that need a faster internet connection with the capability to stream movies and music from Netflix or Spotify, and connect using video chat apps such as Skype/Facetime. We recommend SURF + STREAM if you want to be able to load social media faster.
You can save up to 30% off the prices above if you pre-purchase your packages through the Cruise Planner.
Ignite Tip: You may use the "1 device" plan on multiple devices by logging one device off and logging onto the other device (1 device may be logged on at a time).
Cell Phone:
Your cell phone may be operational while at sea. Please note that, however, international voice and data roaming charges will apply. Please contact your cell phone provider (AT&T, T-mobile, Verizon, etc...) for more information and for their international/cruise roaming rates.
We highly recommend to put your phone on airplane mode and then turn Wifi on to avoid cell roaming charges. Keep in mind that if you purchase Wifi, you can use Facetime, What's App, Skype, Facebook, etc... for "calls". No need for cell service.
