Why unlimited
One flat monthly rate for high-data vessels
Modern cargo ships and tankers run crew welfare Wi-Fi, video calls, electronic charts, weather routing and remote monitoring at the same time. On a metered plan, that data turns into unpredictable overage bills.
Global Priority Unlimited removes the cap: unlimited Global Priority data, no throttling and no overage charges, for one fixed monthly price.
