Norwegian Cruise Line has a new addition to its “prohibited” items list – Walkie-Talkies!
According to CruiseHive, guests can no longer bring walkie-talkies of any size onboard, which may pose a problem for some travelers who use them to keep in touch with other family members on the ship.
Although Norwegian hasn’t explained why they have banned walkie-talkies, CruiseHive reports there could be several reasons, including the frequencies possibly interfering with other onboard signals and unruly behaviors among young cruisers playing games with their walkie-talkies.
Other guests are speculating the move could be an attempt by Norwegian to encourage guests to pay for Wi-Fi packages in order to use social media messaging, or else to pay for a “Phone and Messenger” package through the Norwegian Cruise Line app, CruiseHive told readers.
