Making a Shore-to-Ship Call
People on shore call your vessel by dialing one of your vessel’s phone
numbers. They are billed international and long-distance charges
based on the vessel’s phone number, and not on the location of the
vessel. Therefore, when you set up phone number(s) during service
activation, it is advisable to select the same country code and area/city
code you use at home (an additional monthly fee will apply). This will
allow family, friends, and business associates in your home region to
call your vessel as an in-country call.
NOTE: If you wish to change your vessel’s phone number(s), contact KVH’s
Airtime Services department. See “Contacting the Airtime Services
Department” on page 15.
In the example shown here, people in Los Angeles who call the
vessel’s U.S.-based phone number will not be charged international
fees.
