You pull into anchorage, plug your EVDO Card
We know the routine and know how precious port time is and we have an answer; Amazon Prime
What is prime?
For a modest annual charge of $79 you get Two day and Standard shipping for free on selected Amazon.com items and One Day shipping for $3.99 an item.
It’s really that simple. Sign up for the service and get any of the items sold by Amazon (doesn’t apply to all 3rd party items on Amazon) shipped 2nd day for free. If the ship is on a really tight schedule then overnight the package for only $3.99 per item… regardless of size or weight! The best part is you can ship items to any address, perfect for doing Christmas Shopping on watch (not a practice we officially condone ;).
Where does it work?
Sorry guys but it only works in the United States… for now.
