  1. 5 Essential Tips You Must Know to Start Using Your Smartphone/Tablets While Cruising During earlier days, the travelers would embark on a journey on the cruise ship leaving the world behind them so that they can enjoy the trip. But times have changed now and smartphones have become an essential part of our daily routine. Smartphones not only allow us to communicate with people but also enable us to access mails, social media platforms, and other means of entertainment. Most of the cruise lovers use maritime VSAT support provided by their cruising partner to stay connected to the internet, but there are some other options as well. If you wish to explore some options that can help you to stay connected to internet services on board via smartphone, then read the below tips: 1. Text instead of talking Unless there is an emergency or you really feel like talking to your family back home, try to make more use of texting services and not calling. The international plans for internet and calls are quite expensive. You can take benefit of cheap call rates only if you buy a local SIM card. 2. Get an international plan activated If you are going to use your own data plan, make sure you activate an appropriate international calling and data plan so that you don’t have to live without your phone while travelling at distant locations. 3. Choosing the cruise ship internet plan Many cruise ships offer different data packages at varied rates and you can choose the option to best suit your needs. While few cruise lines offer data that will allow you to surf only popular social media sites, others will offer unlimited access on daily rate basis so that you can buy a plan any time during your stay at the cruise. 4. Download the required apps in advance It is important to download all the apps that you may require while on the cruise as downloading them on board will lead to wastage of time and money. 5. Using Wi-Fi hotspots When the ship is at the shore, you can make use of free internet available at restaurants, cafes, or beaches. Many cruises are now using satellites, Fleet Xpress and maritime VSAT technology to offer increasing broadband capabilities on their sea vessels. If the cruising partner is offering internet connectivity on board, then you will probably not experience much connectivity issues during your sea travel. Explore the web for more information on how Fleet Xpress is changing the face of internet availability on board.
