Post Cell phone service installed on the Magic coming to the Wonder this summer

Cell phone service was installed on the Disney Magic before it left for Europe. Sometime this summer the service will also be available on the Wonder.

Guest will be able to use their cell phone only in the staterooms while the ship is at sea. When the ships are in port they will disable the network. I am not sure if the means that they will turn it off in ports were local service is limited?

They are using a wireless network service called Wireless Maritime Services. Guest will be billed by their cell phone company and rates will vary.

Rates are negotiated with the suppliers on a carrier by carrier basis. The cost will be at premium roaming charge.

That is great news! We had added International calling to our phones before we left, which worked great in the Cayman Islands but in Cozumel, the information we needed to dial through was in Spanish!
