Orange extends its coverage with Thuraya
Orange members can take advantage of Thuraya satellite coverage when travelling to countries that do not provide a sufficient network coverage. All you need is your Orange SIM card and a Thuraya handset to make phone calls by satellite. The call charges will appear on your regular Orange invoice.
areas covered
View Thuraya Satellite Communications' coverage map.
Thuraya mobile phones
Thuraya mobile phones combine regular GSM 900 MHz, SMS, data transfer, voicemail, call forwarding, call waiting as well as satellite reception and GPS (Global Positionning System) features.
Visit the thuraya.com for more information.
Remember that Thuraya services are intended for outdoor usage. If you happen to be indoors, the Thuraya system will send a signal requesting you to move outdoors.
Orange extends its coverage in the air & at sea
Orange members can take advantage of coverage when in the air, or at sea with our partners. Please visit AIR/Aero and SEA/Maritime for more information on provider coverage, pricing and how this works. In most cases you can use your existing Orange mobile phone and the call charges will appear on your regular Orange bill. Costs of using your mobile phone in the air or at sea via partner networks can be considerably more than calling or surfing when at home, or when travelling abroad on the mainland so please take care to consider the charging before you travel.
