What is the difference between a cruise package and other international roaming packages?
AT&T International Day Pass® for Business, AT&T IDP for Business – Multiline, Passport® and Passport Pro® packages do not include cruise ship coverage. View the countries included in these packages.
Is my usage covered regardless of the cruise ship I take?
AT&T cruise packages only apply to select cruise ships. If you're traveling on a non-qualifying ship, any cellular usage will be billed at AT&T cruise packages only apply to select cruise ships. If you're traveling on a non-qualifying ship, any cellular usage will be billed at pay-per-use rates. For more info, see our cruise ship guide for available services.
Will data used while on shore be included in the cruise packages?
Yes, the packages do include usage incurred when off-ship or aboard your cruise ship while in port in Canada, Mexico, and most Caribbean countries.
Can I have a roaming package along with a cruise package?
Yes. Cruise packages are compatible with all other international roaming packages including International Day Pass for Business, Passport and Passport Pro packages.
You should consider adding a roaming package (for example International Day Pass for Business) if:
- You expect to use a lot of data while in port/on land in Canada, Mexico, or the Caribbean Islands, and your domestic wireless plan does not include talk, text, and data while in Canada or Mexico.
- Your cruise destination countries are not included in cruise packages (for example, Italy).
How can I tell if I am on a ship’s wireless network versus a wireless network in an international country?
Be aware that cruise ships are required to turn off their wireless networks when they are 9-12 nautical miles from land and while in port. Also:
- When the ship's wireless network is on, your device will indicate you’re roaming on its network by showing Cellular at Sea, 901-18, or NOR-18 in your display.
- When your device is roaming on a land-based carrier, it displays the land carrier's network information.
How long is the AT&T Cruise package effective?
Cruise packages are effective for 30 days and expire automatically. Pro-rated charges are not provided for cruises less than 30 days. The package will automatically drop off after 30 days, so there is no need to contact Customer Care to remove it.
Will one AT&T Cruise package cover all the devices on my account?
No. AT&T Cruise packages are added on a per-line basis. If you are traveling with multiple wireless devices that you wish to use during your cruise, each device must have its own cruise package.
