#ad use code LIFEOFACRUISER, plus get a FREE 100mb eSim trial for your next cruise with GigSky! https://plans.gigsky.com/WZ4CX5/2CTPL/?uid=5 I tested every way to stay connected at sea (cruise ship internet, cellular data, and eSIM) so you don't have to overpay figuring it out yourself. Here's what each one actually costs, what worked, and what I recommend based on your needs. The three ways to get internet on a cruise: the ship's WiFi, your phone's roaming plan, and a travel eSIM (GigSky). Real costs, real experience, and my honest verdict on each.
