From November 29th, Wind Star cruises will have cell phone service at sea available to its customers on deck. The service is currently available on Wind Surf and will be available on Wind Spirit from April 18th, 2009.
“We are pleased to provide this service to our guests,” said Diane Moore, President of Windstar Cruises. “It allows them the convenience of staying in touch with family, friends and business associates while enjoying their cruise.”
Guests however will be gently reminded to respect each others’ comfort levels and adhere to a set of phone courtesy guidelines. The cell phone connection was introduced primarily so that guests may have access in the their own private staterooms.
Guests will be required to switch their phones to vibrate in public areas such as dining rooms or lounges.
Wind Star is offering this service in partnership with On-Waves Ehf, which supports GSM and CDMA technology on board ships at sea.
