Carnival Cruise Line Plans First 5G Coverage on Jubilee
21.11.2023 - 01:29 / travelpulse.com / TravelPulse Staff
Carnival Cruise Line will introduce 5G mobile connectivity aboard its upcoming Carnival Jubilee ship.
Carnival Jubilee will be the first Carnival vessel—and the first cruise ship in North America—to provide guests access to 5G mobile phone service. The innovation is through a partnership with cellular provider Wireless Maritime Service.
“Carnival Jubilee will be the fleet’s most-connected ship—literally raising the connectivity bar for our guests and serving as another big step in a period of vigorous advancement of our onboard connectivity,” said Luis Terife, VP of onboard guest commerce at Carnival Cruise Line. “The ongoing enhancements we’re rolling out on all of our ships, such as SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet service, make it significantly easier for guests to share the memorable experiences of their cruise with friends and family.”
Carnival Jubilee launches in December and the 5G service will be available early in 2024. Guests can use the enhanced connectivity through service plans for cruise ships provided by their wireless carriers.
After the initial launch on Jubilee, Carnival plans to enable other ships across its fleet with 5G capabilities.
Carnival has also rolled out fleetwide enhancements to its Wi-Fi offerings. The cruise line recently completed upgrades on all 25 ships to install the necessary infrastructure for using SpaceX’s Starlink Satellite service. In addition, Carnival has partnerships with other internet vendors to equip vessels with multi-provider functionality.
Carnival Jubilee debuts in Galveston on December 23 and will sail week-long Western Caribbean itineraries that visit destinations including Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico and Mahogany Bay (Roatan), Honduras.
