Type of Satellite Band (C or K)?

Recommended Posts

We are booked on a cruise of Japan onboard the Nautica in 2021 and have read that internet may not be available from Japanese ports or, in the waters.

 

Posted on the Asia site and was told, "C-Band communications from and to the ship are not legally allowed. Older ships use C-Band for Satellite telephone and internet. Newer ships use K-Band for Satellite telephone and internet communications, which is perfectly legal in Japan. Plus, K-Band has better connections and higher speeds. If your ship has K-Band, you will have no problems with internet (from the ship) in Japan."

 

Does anyone know what type of Band Oceania uses (C or K) on the Nautica (and probably all other ships as well)?
