Skype has option for a wifi phone number…. So you can use ship wifi to call a standard non Skype user, or have them call you. Either give out your Skype number, or just forward your other number..
@christurner1431Ай бұрын
Your estimates of cruise ship WiFi are overestimated. Usually it is around $25 per day so $175 for a 7 day cruise. Not cheap but not as expensive as you stated.

Gigsky cruise cell service is kind of slow, but at least you have some cell service and dont expect to have fast LTE speed.
@dontregenza67603 ай бұрын
Thanks, good video. I have used Gigsky for land use only, but plan to use a land and cruise package on an upcoming cruise. One important point (quoted directly from Gigsky FAQ's) "If you have not previously purchased a data plan or you have deleted the eSIM from your phone, you will have to be connected to Wi-Fi to purchase a data plan. If you have previously purchased a GigSky data plan and still have the eSIM installed on the phone, you do not need to be connected to Wi-Fi, even if you do not have an active data plan. The GigSky service will allow you to connect and purchase a data plan." I believe this feature (access to purchase top ups directly through their cell infrastructure) is unique to Gigsky. Others, such as Airalo, require an active wifi/cell connection. I have tried this at home, by shutting off wifi and primary service cell carrier signal, then starting my pre-installed Gigsky esim cell service. It connects to it's cell service then allows me to go into the Gigsky app to choose a plan. ( note that no other internet services will work until you purchase a gigsky plan ---maybe obviously!) Good luck!

We love MSC and agree about embarkation with them. We join in Southampton, UK, and get from handing over our luggage to the bar in 10 minutes!!! We stick to our boarding time. We love the staff, never had an issue. We love the premium drinks package. The buffet is huge and varied. We do find the MDR limited to our tastes as in, limited menu so do visit often. The speciality restaurants are lovely. Never had cabin issues. Zero complaints us, just big thumbs up even when full sailing. Excellent value for the money.

Main reason I don’t like MSC is that they normally don’t have any other complimentary food option beside main dining and buffet. Hours are more restrictive with food as well. There are often times when there is no food available. Can’t believe they wouldn’t have a burger stand, sandwich shop, taco stand …..Sometjing!

MSC is the new WALMART of the sea, with all the bad reviews they are making Carnival cruise look upscale now.Good for Carnival, I would like to go on an MSC cruise just to try it, but I can’t get that bad taste out of my mouth from all the bad reviews . I know there cruises are somewhat inexpensive, but I would like to get something halfway decent out of it. And the debacle with Ben and David just puts more fuel in the fire.
@pullcarsmelly80519 ай бұрын
If an MSC cruise is 15-20 percent cheaper than other budget lines, but the food quality is poor (it IS), the service is rude and unhelpful (it IS), there is massive overcrowding in common areas (there is) and your overall experience is poor because of it, then there is no VALUE to it. Value is a ratio of costs to expectations. A minor drop in price shouldn't result in a ruined vacation. I've sailed all the major lines. MSC SUCKS. .... At any price. For the record, these days, royal and carnival aren't much better. Premium lines and above are where my family and I are these days. Screw the floating eco disaster, water park eye sores.
