Coverage on Royal Princess cruise?
We are going on a West Coast cruise on the Royal Princess (San Francisco-San Diego-Ensenada). Will we be able to connect to the land towers to get our normal "free" data, SMS and talk services? Other...
Getting anywhere within 2 miles of most cruise ships will have your device potentially connecting to the ships cell tower. Whatever the rates are for their ship is what you will be charged. Cruise ships have the most ridiculous rates I have ever seen.

just make sure you are fully away from the ship before you start making calls/sending texts/using mobile. just because youre in Mexico doesnt mean youre not still connecting to that ship.
