VERIZON
WIRELESS
Verizon
has an international roaming feature, TravelPass, that allows
subscribers to deduct their activity from their regular monthly plan
for a fee of
$2 per day in Mexico and Canada and $10 per day in more than 65 other
locations, including destinations in the Caribbean, Central and South
America, Europe, the Middle East and the Asia Pacific region. The daily
fee is activated only when a subscriber uses their device to take a
call, connect to a
data service or send a text while in one of the covered countries. Each
session extends for 24 hours, during which time usage is covered by the
fee. Another session will begin and another fee
will be activated when a subscriber calls, texts or uses data after the
24-hour session has expired. You can leave the service turned
on at no charge so the feature will be ready to go when you are. A
compatible
device is required.
