   Call 611 and ask them.. I vacationed in a US territory of the caribbean and still had service although someone else had my number so I couldn’t recieve calls. There wasn’t an extra charge.

   Well I just recently went on a Cruise and found that while out at sea I had no service but once we got close to shore I had service and could make calls from my phone. I however went on Carnivals Mexican Riviera cruise so I can say for sure if you service will be the same, but I imagine it would work when you are close to land.

   Go to and look at your coverage area to see if you have service in those areas.

   it will work but it cost extra and the fee is a real ripoff like 2 dollers per min.

   If there is any service in those places, you will probably be roaming. I traveled with my Sprint cell to Cozumel, Grand Caiman and Jamaica, and was able to roam in all of them. You will not have service while at open sea. Check your carrier roaming fees.

   It may work, but there is a killer service charge. We were warned about it when we sailed to the Mexican Riveria with Royal Caribbean. In international waters, most cell phone companies charge like, $5 a minute. It was steep and certainly not worth it.
