Hello community. I have the Above Unlimited Plan for my iPhone, and have unlimited plans for a iPad mini and Apple Watch Series 4 with cellular. I have researched the TravelPass site and have a couple questions:
- If I travel internationally in more than one country in a single day, and I use my phone in more than one country, do I incur two instances of my 5 included TravelPasses in a single day? For instance, if I am travelling to the UK, and stop in Germany first, and I visit both Germany and the UK in one single day, will I only use one TravelPass?
- What about my iPad and Watch? If I use the cellular plans on the iPad and watch internationally, what happens? Am I charged?
- If I am on WiFi, and use WiFi calling, does that count for received phone calls?
- To be able to use my phone, but not use data, if I turn off data roaming and cellular data entirely, am I protected from using up a TravelPass?
Thank you.
We would love to help you stay connected while on this amazing trip, impaler80s2! I can certainly discuss the details regarding TravelPass. When traveling to multiple countries in one day there will only be one session used or one $10.00 charge applied. The tablet can also benefit from the 5 sessions or pay $10.00 per session separately. I apologize as the Apple Watch is not compatible with TravelPass or international roaming. While on Wi-Fi with Wi-Fi Calling activated via Settings>Cellular, a made or received call will not start a TravelPass session or cause extra charges. If you turn off data roaming or cellular data completely, a TravelPass session will not start due to data use but will start if you complete a call off of Wi-Fi or send an SMS text. Also visit http://www.vzw.com/tripplanner for a great resource to learn more about rates, coverage and dialing patterns. Does this help answer the questions you had regarding the international service?

if an i watch series 5 with cellular feature is paired With an iPhone 8 and I am traveling internationally with travel pass on my iPhone, will the i watch by itself trigger the start of a travel pass session? I know that there is no separate international features on the I watch but will that pairing start the travel pass session if there is no activity on the iPhone?
This would depend on whether or not this Smart Watch is connected to your plan. CecileC_VZW
