Shipboard communications can be expensive so I would limit communications to when you are in port and can get free wifi.
You can sign up with your cell phone provider for overseas service and also less expensive service on the ship. I would do this for emergency calls. Be sure your phone is not automatically updating programs etc. while you are on the ship.
You might be able to get a local sims card and install in your phone. This should give you cheaper cell service for in country use.
