Cell Phones On ships

Warning to everyone that goes on a cruise. No matter what they tell you, don't use your cell phone on a ship. Unless you don't care how much your bill is. Yes almost all ships these days are equipped with cell towers, but, they cost you a fortune. Even if you don't answer a call you still get charged. When you get to the ship, turn it OFF!

I just have to laugh every time I see teenagers talking on their cell phones like they are at home. I would pay money to see the look on their parents face when they see the cell bills after vacation.

A new one, today I saw some kids talking with each other on their cell phones from across the theatre. If they only new that it was costing something like $5.00 a minute to talk to someone on the other side of the room. Good god, I think a 900 number might be cheaper.

Just some words of advice!

Now let me just also say this, it is a great thing to have when you really need it. Trust me I have made a few calls home on my phone. But short and too the point is teh name of the game. Turn it on make a call, and turn it off.

They shouldn't call it "Cellular at sea" they should call it, well you can make up your own name!!!!
