I’m potentially visiting an island far West in the Aleutian island chain that is very remote, and would like to ensure the Emergency Satellite SOS service will work there.

This is all anyone here knows, the same thing you can access:
Emergency SOS via satellite availability
To use Emergency SOS via satellite (or share your location via satellite):
You need iPhone 14 or iPhone 14 Pro with iOS 16.1 or later.
You also need to be in a place with no cellular and Wi-Fi coverage.
Emergency SOS via satellite is available in the U.S., Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, and the U.K.3
International travelers who visit a country or region where Emergency SOS via satellite is available can use the feature while visiting, except if they bought their phone in China mainland, Hong Kong, or Macao. Emergency SOS via satellite isn't offered on iPhone models purchased in China mainland, Hong Kong, or Macao.
Satellite connection might not work in places above 62° latitude, such as northern parts of Canada and Alaska.
3. Including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Corsica, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint Barthelemy, the Collectivity of Saint Martin, Saint Pierre & Miquelon, Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Shetland Islands, Orkney Islands, and Scottish Hebrides.

Does the satellite SOS feature work far West into the Aleutian Islands and the Bering Strait as long as I am still within the US? Thanks.
