WiFi calling

[MrJulius]

I plan on using WiFi calling via my iphone while onboard in the Caribbean. 

 

What do I dial to reach the US ?

1-xxx-xxx-xxxx 

or

011-xxx-xxx-xxxx

 

thanks in advance

You would dial  +1   before the number of if calling another country you would do +CountryCode

Dial whatever you dial to reach the number in the US.  I've never had to dial the extra "1"

With WiFi calling, the phone functions exactly as it would in its home country (US in this case). You just dial the 10 digit number.

Refresh my memory.  As long as I have an Internet connection, WiFi Callng will work without extra charges...does this also include being out at sea?  I have previously only used in port.

Correct.  You need to go to settings and confirm wifi calling is turned on.  I also turn off cellular to avoid any charges

We have the internet package and use wifi calling regularly.  Configure it before you leave the USA - and make sure your phone has roaming turned off and it is in airplane mode.

Thanks everyone.

 

Once again, this IS the source.

If you're calling over wi-fi through an app, such as messenger, viber or Facetime (or similar) and your contact is also on the app then there's no need to dial anything, just select the person you want to dial within that app.

Wifi onboard is now more than capable of dealing with this time of calling.

And, again, this is not WiFi calling. This is using an app. You don't need the app with WiFi calling. You can use the app over the internet, but it's not the same as what the OP was asking.
