Roaming plan

I am going on a cruise to the Caribbean islands in December and the cruise wifi is too expensive. I want to have a bit of data and cell service while on my trip. Is there a way I could get a plan for a week?

Roaming is only available on land based cell towers. Easy Roam Canada-US plans and roaming passes do not cover you on cruise ships or in-flight. Usage on cruise ships or in-flight will be charged at $0.60 per text, $7.00 per minute and data usage will be blocked. In the case that data is somehow used, you would be looking at data costs of $15 per MB. I would definitely recommend waiting until you reach a port and connect to the local network there since you would then be able to use the standard roaming service. While at sea the ships use a satellite based service that has no limit on what they will charge.
