Going on a Cruise

[trw1972]

Hey all.

I am off on a cruise at the end of the month, but plan to do some work (via laptop) while away - probably during the hours the wife is getting ready in the evening.

However all my work stuff is protected by 2fa and an authenticator which requires the local time on my phone to be accurate.

Apparently internet access via wifi is not enough for my phone to update its timezone (i appreciate i can set it manually)

I was considering turning the cellular network on briefly (roaming) just long enough to update the time but cant find any information on how much i would be charged?

I am also not sure if the spend cap on my account applies to roaming charges? i currently have it set to £10.00. 

Thanks.

Also check with the cruise provider.

Roaming charges are covered by spend cap, but not O2 travel bolt on charges.
