Starlink Internet service is good on SOME cruise ships and bad on others because there are many sources of latency between a user on a ship and the Internet. My recent experience on a Seabourn cruise was good.

Starlink Service Is Great on (Some) Cruise Ships<https://circleid.com/posts/20240501-starlink-service-is-great-on-some-cruise-ships>
I recently used Starlink on a cruise along the coast of Northwest Africa, and I'll summarize my experience below, but first let me explain why I put some in the title of this post. I posted the following request on the Reddit Cruise group: "What has been your experience of Starlink Internet service on Seabourn or other cruise lines? How was latency? Do video chats work smoothly? Games? etc."
