Why do I need a Satellite Phone?
Until a few years ago satellite based voice and data communication was only available to a select few industries and markets with a bottomless pocket, such as the military, mining, aviation, marine and media companies reporting from hot spots around the world. Within the last few years satellite phone prices and calling rates have dropped significantly and became very affordable. Now, many people buy or rent satellite phones and taking them on fishing trips, hiking and even business travel. Today's satellite phones can be used by anyone who is traveling in remote areas that need dependable communications worldwide.
Are you traveling in remote areas inaccessible by cell phones or land line phones?
You owe it to yourself to find out if there is adequate cell phone access before embarking on a trip that takes you into remote areas. If you are traveling to South America, Africa and Asia be prepared for limited cell phone access outside of the major cities.
While cellular phone coverage in most of the urban areas in the United States is excellent you may be surprised to learn that the majority of rural America has no cell phone access. This is especially the case for national parks and other popular hiking and fishing destinations.
Every year, hundreds of people and families get lost in national parks and other remote areas by wandering onto deserted paths during vacations, or end up caught in snow storms during the winter. Sometimes, a 2 minute emergency call could save precious lives if a satellite phone was available in the middle of nowhere. Satellite phones are becoming very popular because of their seamless and dedicated connectivity even in the remotest parts of the world at very affordable prices.
You need to rent or buy a satellite phone if you are:
A hunter or fisherman traveling in remote areas in the US or anywhere in the world.
A hiker, climber or skier who is seeking thrills in desolate parts of the world.
A marine enthusiast who ventures into the open waters even for a few hours.
A business traveler who needs to maintain lines of communication anywhere in the world.
Involved in rescues and disaster recovery.
Working on remote exploration or construction projects such as pipelines.
Working for a media company on assignments requiring constant communication with the home office.
Planning on taking a cruise and need to stay in touch? At $12 to $15 per minute, one of the pleasures of cruising is not the ship to shore call rate.
