RN7997 Posted February 22, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I am sailing Oasis in 2 weeks with 3 other couples and my 2 sons ages 10 and 13. My 10 year old will not be left to roam but my 13 year old is going to be in the teen club and I can see us giving him a little freedom onboard as he is very responsible and trustworthy. Its other people I dont trust and so with a ship this big I need to be able to communicate. Current phones Royal had are out of commission for updates so I am looking into plan B. Walkie talkies. I have a set here I bought when I cruised Adventure and they dont work well at all on a ship. I need advice on a brand to buy, esp from those that had success on Oasis with a set.

disney922 Posted February 22, 2011 #2 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I would like info on this as well. Are the Royal connect phones not available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenL Posted February 22, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 22, 2011 We brought our Motorolas with us on the Oasis. The worked fine in most places, iffy on elevators though. We got them from Target for about $50 bucks if memory serves me. Enjoy the Oasis. It was an awesome ship! I don't remember the exact model no but these look like the ones we have http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-TalkAbout-18-Mile-22-Channel-Two-Way/dp/B000O60S9S/ref=sr_1_20?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1298401067&sr=1-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disney922 Posted February 22, 2011 #4 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I wonder if the motorola cell phones work if they are in two-way mode. My DH has one and his brother has one that we could borrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rin1 Posted February 24, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I could just be making this up because I know nothing about cell phones being in 2-way mode, but I'd be wary of that in case my phone ended up in some sort of crazy data mode and I got charged $$$ for it.
