How can I make a phone call to a cruise ship?

How much does it cost to make a phone call from a cruise ship? Ship to Shore Call.?

  • Has anyone ever made a call & knows approx. how much? If you have a cell phone with you, can you get service? I guess it would depend on where you traveling. I just was wondering.

  • Answer:

    usually you can use your cell phone no more than 10 miles offshore but farther than that you will have to use the ship phone which costs $8/min.

Satellite calls are pretty expensive. It is up to the cruise line how much they will charge the passenger. The cheapest I experienced was about US$7 per minute. Depending on your network service and where you are, you might be able to use your own cell phone. Don't expect to get reception in the middle of nowhere, you'll need to be close enough to land to get reception. Basically, if not an emergency, don't use the satellite phone onboard the ship.

get ready to pay around 40-50 bucks per call. Cruise from Fla. - Bahamas in 2006. This was just to get an answering machine.
