[amsat-bb] Carnival Cruise Line

Here is the answer I got to my inquiry about bringing ham radio gear on
board.  It looks like blanket permission since in "Exemptions and Other
Considerations" it states "Permitted to be used on board"

 

Since the ship is registered in Panama all I need to do is contact the ARRL
for my IARP Permit.  Has anyone had a problem taking an Elk or Arrow antenna
on a plane or will it have to go in the belly (extra $25)? (broke down, not
together)

My wife, son and I are booked on a cruise to the Eastern Caribbean from
Miami aboard the Splendor, booking # XXXXXX. As I was reading through the
"What to Pack" I clicked on "Prohibited Items",
Listed under "Carnival Corporation Prohibited Items" you list "Emergency
Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRB), ham radios, satellite phones,
transformers, lasers and laser pointers" yet under "Exemptions and Other
Considerations" you have "Ham Radios/Amateur Radio Equipment: Permitted to
be used on board". Can I bring my hand held ham radio on board or not?
