biker1972 Posted May 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Looking at the Verizon Alaska coverage maps, you should be good almost everywhere including the Richardson Highway, the Denali Highway and the Parks Highway as well as the ports of call on the cruise. See the Verizon web site if you have more questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozark74 Posted May 15, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) The only place that I had trouble with reception was in Skagway. Everyplace else was fine. Edited May 15, 2016 by ozark74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted May 16, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 16, 2016 From Ohio. Will I have Verizon SE vice in Alaska and free of charge? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Yes, except when there is no service at all which happens sometimes,, but as long as you are in the usual towns and villages, or along the major highways you will have coverage 90% + of the time. As long as you have the typical nationwide roaming plan then there is no roaming charge. Be careful in Canad, that is considered International roaming.

Osborn Cox Posted May 16, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 16, 2016 In Canada, if you add Verizon's Travel Pass, using your device only costs a flat fee of $2/day. All data, text messages, and voice use is subtracted from your normal monthly allowances. I've used it in both Mexico and Canada, works great and no unexpected charges other than the $2 for each 24 hr period the device was used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potstech Posted May 18, 2016 #10 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Only if you have the plan to allow calls TO Canada on your plan like I do on Verizn. Otherwise you pay international rates. When we go to Canada (Thursday) we add he travel pass so we can call will in Canada using our standard plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful in Canad, that is considered International roaming.That's not the way VZ's website makes it sound: TravelPass lets you use your domestic talk, text and data allowances while traveling outside the US in more than 100 countries for a low daily rate. https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/international-travel-faqs/#travelpass1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
