Verizon service out of the states

I will be going on a cruise to the Bahamas in April and need to keep service to the ol'droid any suggestions. Is there a plan i can get for a month and then end it.

Here is what I came across with a quick Google Search of Verizon and Bahamas. Seems like you are better off buying a calling card.

Does Verizon Wireless have coverage in the Bahamas? - Yahoo! Answers

Hope that helps!

that stinks. I believe they have a international plan maybe i can get it for one month

Just remember that the DROID is not a world phone so you can not throw a SIM card in the phone from another country's provider.

I think your best bet in this situation is to call Verizon and explain your situation. The CS reps are much more knowledgeable in this stuff than we are

Yup have traveled to the Bahamas with Verizon service as well. Large roaming fees. Better to use a calling card.

On the upside...... you will be in the Bahamas.

Call Verizon you will need to add International roaming to your account I have been to the Bahamas and have gotten coverage on my verizon phone but I was on a Cruise and the ship wasn't to far away. The rates though are terrible I spent a good 200 extra dollars for my cell phone on a 7 day cruise Cruise was great though
