United-Mobile on Cruise ship

so I just manually select the local one before making a call. However, if a call comes in during this time, it's no telling which network you will be on. So, it could either be free, or very expensive.

Bossman, to my knowledge if you are logged into a local network but still on the ship you are logged into that network and can't receive calls through the ships network.

On most phone's if you set the network selection to manual and select the local network. Ones out of range you would have to select the ships network manually.
when set to automatic than you would indeed have the risk of the phone switching to the ships network.
