Maintaining its commitment to providing state-of-art communications solutions to its customers, Ooredoo Maritime Roaming allows travellers to remain in touch with family, friends and business associates even when while away on board cruise ships and ferries.
Provisioning of telecommunication services on board has become a prerequisite for most cruise and ferry travellers, as the same service is expected on board as on shore. Ooredoo now offers seamless connectivity via personal mobile phones to both passengers and crew on board cruise-ships, ferries and other vessels worldwide. Users can now use their own mobile phones at sea, as if they were on shore. Ooredoo customers can make and receive calls, send and receive SMS (Short Message Service), while sailing the seas and oceans, exactly as if they were at home or travelling abroad, using the roaming capabilities of GSM networks.
Ooredoo customers can now enjoy roaming coverage on the MCP network on the following cruise liners to the given destinations travel areas:
