Best Data Pass for Cruise Travel

Cruise ship Wi-Fi is famously expensive, but port days open a much cheaper door.

  • Ship Wi-Fi can run $10 to $25 per day
  • Port-day eSIMs cost $3 to $10 per country
  • Buy a plan for each port country in advance
  • Switch off ship Wi-Fi in port to avoid roaming

Stock up on small eSIMs for each port before you sail, and you cut the ship internet bill dramatically.

Download entertainment before sailing, then use small port plans only for maps, chat and quick lookups.
