Excellent idea!  Didn't realize this was even an option for ship to shore!  I will definitely call Verizon!  If that is available it 110% solves our problems/concerns with keeping in touch with the ol' guy/dog!  Thanks! 

 

Be careful.  You will have to be connected to the ship's Cellular at Sea node.  And if someone calls you, you will be paying the voice price.  I think even if they leave a voice mail, you will be charged.

 

I know in the past, if I was traveling internationally, and turned on my phone in X country, then turned it off, I was charged for incoming calls that routed to voice mail.

I called Verizon and supposedly we can text ship to shore without having any kind of RCL package.  50 cents to send and 5 cents to receive.  Sounds too good to be true?  

 

Has anyone tried this?   

 

Sure, works fine.  Just be aware that you pay something like $2.49 for incoming calls that you don't answer.
