According to an update from GCI Alaska, the region’s main internet and cell service provider, the outage was caused by a break in a key underwater fiber optic cable located about 30 miles off the coast of Sitka. A repair ship has already[...]

Starlink, which provides high-speed internet using satellites in Outer Space that belong to SpaceX, revolutionized Wi-Fi capabilities onboard Royal Caribbean’s 28 ships – and has since been largely adopted[...]

Unfortunately, those visits don’t always happen as planned, and it can be disappointing when guests find out at the last minute that itinerary adjustments are necessary.

Upon arrival at the cruise terminal and when boarding the ship in New York, they were informed of two port time adjustments for their 8-night one-way trip to Quebec City, Canada.[...]
