Question

Do walkie talkies work on cruise ships??

Answer 1

Yes, they are a great way to stay in contact. I was very frustrated trying to find my friends all week on the cruise.

Answer 2

Yes they do.  Lots of families use them to keep tabs on the whereabouts of each other.

They are a tad bit annoying to other passengers if constantly used.  Use your judgement on how much to use them.

Answer 3

yes...they r the best thing for a cruise when u have a large group of people or just a couple

Answer 4

Yes it does work it keeps you in touch with your friends and family aboard the ship

Answer 5

Yes! By all means, take them if you want to know where everyone is.

My sister and I took a cruise to Alaska, both of us took our Talkabout(motorola) walkie talkies to stay in touch. They worked everywhere, even from a restaurant.

You can pick them up fairly easily at Walmart, and for a good price. Get the ones that are GMRS, and have a 5 mile or more radius, that way, of you lose someone on land, you can find each other also.

Answer 6

We said with Royal Caribbean and yes, people had walkie talkies.  They were very popular with the Spanish.

Answer 7

Yes they do work and can be very helpful in finding or keeping tabs of friends and family; especially on the huge ships like the Freedom of the Seas.  But you need to find a channel that does not have a lot of chatter as many folks are now using them.  Also, be considerate of others when using them.

Answer 8

I would think so! And man, that's an awesome idea! So then you can give  your kids one, or if you are a kid, you could have a sibling and you play like tag or something sweet!

If I ever go on a cruise ship, i'm so bringing walkie talkies now =]

Answer 9

Work  very  nicely  too

Answer 10

Yes they are wonderful. Just an idea.... everyone else will have one too. I'd get a set with many channels you'll have less interference from other families. Also the better ones have a better range. This is important when someone in inside the metal hulled ship. Have fun!

Answer 11

if you have two walkie-talkies on cruise ship within the max range and in same frequency, yes, i would work.

Answer 12

Yes they work.  Most ships even rent them onboard
