VoyageSIM eSIMs use terrestrial cellular networks. They are designed to connect when a compatible partner network is available in a destination covered by your plan.
Internet connectivity while the ship is at sea is therefore not guaranteed with a terrestrial eSIM.
When the ship is far from shore, you may need to use the Wi-Fi or maritime Internet service offered by your cruise line.

A mobile data connection can be especially useful once you leave the ship and start exploring your destination.
Find beaches, restaurants and attractions, and navigate your way back to the cruise port.
