Why rent a cell phone?
When traveling overseas using your own cell phone will be very
expensive due to high roaming costs. When you rent an international
cell phone from Global Cellular Rental, we supply you with an

Do I need to rent a satellite phone or a cell phone?
Cell phones work off of cell towers while satellite phone work off of
satellites. Today, most populated places in the world have cell towers
that allow cell phones to receive a signals. Therefore, in most places
renting a cell phone will be sufficient.
I’m going on a cruise, do I need to rent a satellite phone or a cell
phone?
Most cruise ships today have cell towers on the boat. The issue is,
the cruise ship company charges a service charge to use their cell
towers. You can avoid these extra charges either by using the cell
phone only when off the boat or renting and using an international
satellite phone.
