Making a Shore-to-Ship Call

52
People on shore call your vessel by dialing your vessel's phone
number. They are billed international and long-distance charges based
on the vessel's phone number, and not on the location of the vessel.
Therefore, when you set up your phone number during service
activation, it is advisable to select the same country code and area/city
code you use at home (an additional monthly fee will apply). This will
allow family, friends, and business associates in your home region to
call your vessel as an in-country call.
NOTE: If you wish to change your vessel's phone number, contact KVH's
Satellite Airtime & Product Activation department. See
Satellite Airtime and Product Activation Department" on page
In the example shown here, people in Los Angeles who call the
vessel's U.S.-based phone number will not be charged international
fees.
