Royal Caribbean Group's cruise brands, including Royal Caribbean International, Silversea Cruises and Celebrity Cruises, will adopt Starlink satellite Internet service, allowing passengers on cruise ships to access the Internet smoothly through mobile phones, laptops and other devices during their travels.

However, it depends on whether the Starlink service can support the huge data traffic generated by so many users.
