Speed comparison (screenshots at 2m53s) shows Carnival's wifi at 3.88 mbps download (upload not shown) Vs starlink's at around 140 mbps down and 30 mbps up.

Also (4m55s):

> unlike every other Cruise Line they intentionally blocked the port for Wi-Fi calling. The only way I was able to make a Wi-Fi call was on my satellite dish

Ironically, it seems Carnival have switched at least some of their ships to use starlink [0]. I can't find a date on that webpage, but assume it happened after the confiscation of the customer's starlink mini.
