In a few months will be on a cruise with no cell service, wife is worried I will go into chess withdrawal.

Are there any handhelds worth purchasing?  Just want to play chess a little while I'm gone. I'm not strong by any means, fluctuate between 950 and 1050 it seems

Even if you can’t make calls. (No cell service)Is there no Wi-Fi on the ship?

The chess.com app allows for offline use?

they have wifi, it is spotty,  slow, and expensive.

You can play the bots on Chess.com while your phone is in airplane mode. I just tested it. No need to buy a handheld if you have a smart phone.

Had no idea it worked offline, thanks everyone!
