I thought its Medallion you would be ok, when I talked to AT&T they said the roaming charges started on Jan 11th while we were in Ft Lauderdale. Said they'd take it off, but haven't. So be warned. Always keep in Airplane mode. MedallionNet should work with WiFi calling but you MUST disable mobile data or you will end up being charged. The easiest way is to go into Airplane Mode and then turn WiFi back on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a wifi connection. That is correct. I use Wife to call from hotels from anywhere without paying anything for my calls. Also from ships with free Wifi (Platinum). 2 hours ago, cr83687 said: Did you purchase AT&T's cruise package or just the wifi calling through Princess internet? Wifi calling through Princess internet. Only logged on when I wanted to make a call. No charge, since I was using free Platinum minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
