I’ve traveled with and without it. I’ll never travel without again.

The International Day Pass makes total sense and I always use it. But one annoying piece. If you are flying within the US but your airport is near a Canadian border (think Detroit) and you forget to put the phone on airplane mode when landing, it might ping a Canada tower and it will turn on the $10 day pass.

I just got back from France and I have AT&T.
Get it on your phone. Go to your AT&T account and activate the international plan. You can use the phone in the normal manner. Every time you do so in a 24 hour period, they charge you $10 for the first phone that you use and $5 for the second. If you don’t use it for a day you don’t get charged. Easy.

I used Google Fi last summer and it worked great. International data, calls and txt are included in their $65 /mo plan. Once I got back home I went back to their less expensive basic plan. US Mobile which is TMobile has a similar deal.

Just bought a plan for a child who’s there for a summer. Holafly unlimited data plan was $135 for 90 days. It was cheaper for shorter durations. You can use as hot spot as well. She’ll turn off roaming and use WhatsApp. Should also be able to use apple messages between iPhone users and FaceTime audio.
