Frequently asked questions
Can I call a regular phone number from a MSC Cruises ship?
Yes, over the ship's Wi-Fi with an internet calling service. QuikRing dials any mobile or landline from a browser. The line's Wi-Fi plan has to let the call through.
How do I avoid roaming charges on MSC Cruises?
Turn on airplane mode before the ship leaves port, then turn Wi-Fi on and use the ship's Wi-Fi. If you leave airplane mode off, your phone can join the ship's cellular network, and your carrier bills the use as roaming.
Can I call emergency numbers with QuikRing on MSC Cruises?
No. QuikRing cannot call emergency numbers. On board, use the ship's emergency procedure and the contact numbers MSC Cruises gives you.
