What happens when you cross the North Atlantic with no ship WiFi, limited data, and no constant connection to the internet? In Episode 2 of our MSC Meraviglia Transatlantic cruise series, we officially begin our 4-day “radio silence” experiment while sailing across the Atlantic Ocean from Halifax toward the Azores. Before disconnecting, we break down the internet and connectivity options available on MSC Meraviglia, including MSC WiFi packages and alternative mobile data options using GigSky. We also share why we decided NOT to buy the ship internet package for this crossing — and whether we’d actually do it again. Turns out, disconnecting at sea changes the rhythm of travel in ways we didn’t expect. In this episode: • MSC Meraviglia WiFi package options explained • GigSky cruise and international data options • Why we skipped ship internet for 4 days • How we spent our time during the Atlantic crossing • What worked (and what didn’t) without internet • Would we do another “radio silence” cruise? • Teaser of our upcoming stop in Ponta Delgada, Azores This series combines real cruise experiences, independent travel, practical tech, and slower travel ideas while crossing the Atlantic on MSC Meraviglia.
