Your questions answered

Can I use my mobile phone?

Enjoy the flexibility of using your mobile phone to chat to family and friends back home, even when you are miles out at sea. You can even send pictures, media clips and texts. The network will be activated when the ship is at sea. When the service becomes available for use your mobile will show either MCP or 901 12 in the display. This will mean that you are using ‘International Maritime Roaming’. You can call home for as little as £1.40 per minute for calls and text for 50p. You will be supplied with pre-printed contact cards in your travel documents.

How do I get in touch with a ship?

If any of your family or friends need to contact you while you are on board, they can do so by phoning: 0800 917 1584 (UK only). They will be asked to provide their credit card number and expiry date. They will then be prompted to provide the ship name, as well as your name and stateroom number. Their call will then be directed to your stateroom. Only upon connection with the ship will charges commence. Calls will be charged at £3.00 per minute no matter where the ship is.

If calling from outside the UK, please dial 001 732 3353264 (the same procedure will apply). There will be an American call charge for dialling this number in addition to the £3.00 per minute call charge.

If you are not in your stateroom at the time of the call a message will be taken and delivered to your stateroom. We recommend that you give the relevant number to your family and friends prior to travel.

How can I stay in touch with home?

Not just a place to send emails and keep in contact with friends and family back home, the Cyb@study offer the opportunity to acquaint yourself with the latest software packages and technology. You could, for example, discover how to get the very most out of your digital photography with Photosuite. There may even be some of the more standard Microsoft packages like Excel and Word that you might have been waiting for the right time to learn how to use.

If you are a complete novice when it comes to computers then the relaxed, friendly environment found in the Cyb@study is the perfect place to be introduced for the first time – we can help you to surf the internet and set up an email account so you can write home and let everyone know what a wonderful holiday you are having.
