cruising to mexico
I heard to turn phone to airplane mode while on the ship so if I want to call home while in mexico do I just turn off airplane ? then off again when on the ship? heard lots of stories of being charge...
Keep your phone in airplane mode while on the cruise ship and turn it on when on land away from the cruise ship and remember to turn it back on when you get back to the ship.
Most US based ships are 'supposed to wait' until in international waters before turning on cell service, but netter safe than sorry for this. A few years back, i forced my phone while.in Europe to NOT use 3g (ships were using) and only use 4g LTE. It worked fine, however it would have been a big bill if had connected.
