[Hidden-tech] How to remain connected when traveling to Europe

[Marcia Yudkin]

AT&T does still have a monthly international plan for $30 or $60 a month depending on how much data allowance you want.  However, they do not advertise it because they want you to sign up for their $10/day plan.  But if you ask, you can get the cheaper plan.

I used it for a 2 week trip in Greece last year and went just slightly over the $60 plan because I was using Google Maps every day to get around.

     We've done a fair bit of traveling in the last few
 years.
 
     
 
     Our phones are on t-mobile and we just have to activate
     international service, no extra charge on our plan.
 
     
 
     For ipads, we use AT&T and they have a monthly
 international
     service on the pay as you go option,
 
     I think it was $30/month -- although warning their north
 america is
     really USA - does NOT include Canada, no idea about
 Mexico.
 
     
 
     As for as hotel access, now a days, most hotels
 everywhere provide
     free or cheap wifi.
 
     Even free in many public places -- for example, check
 out http://wifi.paris.fr
 
     
 
     Also, note that using an american credit card, still
 required a
     signature, even though EU cards needed a pin.
 
     That is for charges - ATM all need pins, same as USA

         Does anyone have
 experience maintaining
           secure, reliable internet access while traveling
 abroad in
           Europe. 
            
         In the US I have a
 cell plan where my phone
           is my hotspot and anywhere  I go here allows me
 to connect
           seamlessly so long as there is decent cell
 service. 
            
         I am hoping to
 replicate this in
          
 Europe.
