01 \/ THE OPPORTUNITY<\/span><\/p>\n

CONNECT THE DESTINATION, NOT THE DECK.<\/h2>\n

Passengers may need maps, transfers, messaging and onward travel information at the port of arrival. That makes pre-departure or ticket-confirmation distribution more relevant than asking passengers to purchase at the gangway.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
01<\/span>BOOKING CONFIRMATION<\/span><\/div>\n

With the ticket<\/h3>\n

Offer coverage relevant to the destination and onward itinerary.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n
02<\/span>PRE-TRAVEL EMAIL \/ APP<\/span><\/div>\n

Before departure<\/h3>\n

Share activation guidance while passengers still have reliable internet access.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n
03<\/span>LOYALTY \/ COMMUTER BENEFITS<\/span><\/div>\n

For frequent passengers<\/h3>\n

Explore repeat-travel allowances or targeted passenger benefits.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
02 \/ THE COMMERCIAL MODEL<\/span><\/p>\n

SELL. INCLUDE. REWARD.<\/h2>\n

One customer journey can support different ways to deliver connectivity. The right setup depends on your audience, offer and chosen supplier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

SELL.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Passengers purchase destination connectivity through the operator\u2019s owned channel.<\/p>\n

\u2197<\/span><\/div>\n

\n

INCLUDE.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Bundle an allowance with a premium crossing or international travel package.<\/p>\n

\u2197<\/span><\/div>\n

\n

REWARD.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Provide selected frequent travelers with starter data or a promotional benefit.<\/p>\n

\u2197<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
03 \/ FROM IDEA TO OFFER<\/span><\/p>\n

Before boarding to after arrival<\/h2>\n

Start with a focused distribution touchpoint. Build the operating model around what customers already do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n
  1. STEP 01<\/span>\n

    The passenger receives a booking confirmation for an international crossing.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. STEP 02<\/span>\n

    A destination data offer appears in the normal pre-travel communication.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. STEP 03<\/span>\n

    The passenger uses the eSIM upon connecting to supported mobile networks at the destination.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/section>\n

    \n
    IMPORTANT \/ THE PRACTICAL DETAILS<\/span><\/p>\n

    Coverage on water is different<\/h2>\n

    Travel eSIM coverage is generally based on terrestrial mobile networks and may be unavailable or inconsistent at sea. Maritime connectivity, onboard Wi-Fi and satellite services are separate solutions. Any passenger offer must state clearly where coverage is expected.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

    \n
    04 \/ FREQUENT QUESTIONS<\/span><\/p>\n

    THE QUESTIONS THAT MATTER.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \nWill a travel eSIM work throughout the ferry crossing?+<\/span><\/summary>\n

    Not necessarily. It may lose signal away from land. The offer should focus on destination connectivity unless suitable maritime service is explicitly included.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

    \nCan ferry operators offer multi-country plans?+<\/span><\/summary>\n

    Potentially, where the supplier\u2019s regional products cover the actual route and destination networks.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

    \nCan distribution happen through ticketing partners?+<\/span><\/summary>\n

    Yes, subject to integration and commercial terms. A tracked post-booking offer may be a practical first pilot.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

    \nCan a ferry bundle connectivity into tickets?+<\/span><\/summary>\n

    Yes, where eligible prepaid products, activation timing and per-passenger delivery can be operationalized.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
