Two questions:

Does the cruiseliner offer on board GSM roaming?

Do either United Mobile or Yackie offer coverage on cruise ship networks?

I am on Carnival. I think it maybe on the cruise ship, because ATT wireless says they have service on the ship at like $2.49 a minute! How do I tell of UM or yackie support GSM on the ship?

Which is the carrier that offers gsm coverage on this ship? In most cases incoming costs are not free with international sims. Caution is required. I would check with customer service of UM and yackie. Yackie would be fine with the US number.

I figured I won't get free incoming on the ship. In-port is what I really care about. So long as people seem to have good luck with Yackie, that might be my best bet then. I am not sure if there are any other providers with looking into.
