Hello arandia,

Thanks for an interesting question. Of course, to contact a passenger
on a ship, you must know the name of the Cruise Line and the name of
the ship. Once you have that, there are several good web sites that
provide contact information.

At http://icruise.discovery.com/shipcontacts.htm , you will find a
lisitng of major cruise lines, their ship and phone and fax numbers.
For example, the following shows Cruise Line, Ship, Phone and Fax:


Bergen Line, Inc. 
 
 Harald Jarl 947-855-92 948-964-44 (fax) 
 Kong Harald 948-075-20 948-075-21 (fax) 
 Lofoten 948-922-99 948-980-75 (fax) 
 Midnatsol 948-955-63 948-177-09 (fax) 
 Narvik 948-968-37 948-008-39 (fax) 
 Nordkapp 947-428-00 947-427-77 (fax) 
 Nordlys 948-699-20 948-699-21 (fax)

Zenith 874/124-5564 874/124-5566/ZEC 
 
And so on. For non USA phone numbers, you will have to dial the
appropriate country code before the number. A list of telephone
country codes can be found here:
http://www.the-acr.com/codes/cntrycd.htm


At http://www.i-cruise.com/member/shipc.htm , you will find another
listing o Cruise Lines, ships and contact numbers. In this case, the
first number is their phone and the second is their Telex number. For
example:

Carnival Cruise Lines

And lastly, Immarsat lists ships with their communciations installed
including phone, fax and email. At
http://217.204.152.210/ship_dir_result.cfm , type in the name of a
ship of Cruise Line and you will see very detailed results. For
example, a partial result from searching for Carnival brought up:

Name        Email Telex   Telephone    Fax   System   Type   Flag
   
 
 CARNIVAL  424858310                   Inmarsat-C TDG     MLT 
 
 CARNIVAL 
 DESTINY   330801716     330801710   330801714  Inmarsat-B TDG  BAH 
 
 
At http://217.204.152.210/contact_ships.cfm , you will find complete
directions for contacting using this information. Follow the links on
this page, which include:

 
 
Depending on the type of Inmarsat system fitted aboard the ship you
want to contact, you can phone, fax, telex or email her just as if she
were a home or office ashore.
 
 
PHONE AND FAX 
 
Ships fitted with Inmarsat-A, B, M or mini-M may be contacted by phone

EMAIL

And lastly, this site, http://www.cybercruises.com/cruiselines.htm,
lists most major cruise lines. In the event you cruise line or ship
does not appear in any list, you can call the cruise line to get
contact information for the ship.

I trust this information has been helpful for you.
