## Shipboard communications
*This Article Applies to Expeditions On Board the **Ocean Nova** and the **Ocean Victory***
Satellite phone and email services are available on board. Basic internet is included, and upgraded plans are available for purchase through Reception.
As we travel through remote regions, connectivity can be limited and may be slow or intermittent. Internet access is best suited for light use such as checking emails, and is not always reliable for uploading photos or browsing.
Cabin-to-cabin calls are complimentary.
\* Internet may not be included in programs run by our partners.
