Hi Donna, Okay, here is what I purchased. It's a travel plug adapter with USB. It's made by Tessan. I bought two from Amazon. We only took our iPhones, I wanted to travel light. We didn't own Apple watches then, we would have taken those which we have now. We are also with Verizon. They have what's called a pass plan. It's $10 per day. The cool thing is that you only are charged if you use it. We traveled on buses and trains and kept our phones off. Most of our usage was on Wi-Fi which was available wherever we stayed. As has been stated, you only incur charges when using cellular data. We rarely used cellular data, as it was often spotty anyway. Hope this helps. Best,

That’s exactly what I wanted to know. I thought that was the case, but didn’t want to find out I was wrong after I was already there. :) Re the calling plan, I figure it’s just easier to stick with my current plan, and add international coverage. I have the option of only adding it for the time period that I’m in Europe, so I think that’s what I’ll do. Best, Donna > On Feb 21, 2024, at 7:48 AM, 'Jason J.G.
