Greetings all. I will be going on a cruise a week from tomorrow and had some questions about hopefully using my iPhone on the cruise ship. First off, realizing that cruise ship Internet cafe prices are expensive, is it possible to use one's iPhone in airplane mode on the ship when in international waters? I called the cruise company and they said no, since I'm sure they would rather that I drop money in the Net cafe rather than using my device's battery. Second, when in the United States territories, is it possible to opt out of the ship's wireless network and use my AT&T data plan? I will be traveling from Galveston, TX to Key West, Florida, for the first leg of the trip. Then I go out of the country to the Bahamas. Since we won't get to Florida unil day 3 of the trip, I was hoping that I could use my data plan to stream some football games on Sunday instead of paying the ship fees. I suppose what I'm asking is if the area from Texas to Florida is covered in the AT&T network? I don't imagine myself doing a lot of streaming, but just looking for another option besides the ship's costly network. Finally, my soon to be wife will be adopting my old iPhone 4. Since I have moved my AT&T service from the 4 to the 5, the iPhone 4 isn't connected to a network. However, it still has the voice memos app and the camera apps for capturing those special moments. Might it be possible for us to use the old iPhone in order to take pictures and make some recordings of our time on the cruise? The only online connectivity I could imagine would be to backup the photos to iCloud, but we won't be able to do that until we get back home to Texas anyway. Any thoughts on any of this would be most appreciated. \ Regards, Wayne
