Airtel sees huge jump in demand for international roaming, plans start at Rs 133 per day – Times of India
Airtel has refreshed its international roaming plans
To simplify things further, Airtel has also refreshed its international roaming plans to make it more affordable for its customers. The Airtel International roaming plans now start for as low as Rs 133 per day. The company claims that their international plans are more economical than the local SIMs of most countries and that has resulted in a significant jump for the company in pack subscriptions in both the prepaid and postpaid segments.
The 10-day validity packs remain the most popular pack subscriptions among the Delhiite out roamers and even though USA and UK are the most frequently travelled destinations from India, the most popular international holiday destinations on Airtel’s network for Delhiites are European countries like Germany, France, the Netherlands and Switzerland.
Airtel’s International Roaming Plan offers several advantages over local SIM cards, including seamless connectivity (with no need for a change of number), the best available network, flexible duration options, unlimited emergency connectivity, control through the Airtel Thanks App and a dedicated toll-free number 99100-99100 available on call and WhatsApp. Further, recognising the importance of simplifying activation for international outroamers, Airtel has set up a kiosk at the departure terminal of Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport in the duty-free area.
Here are some key features of Airtel International roaming plans
- One of the most affordable plans: The Airtel IR Plan is very affordable and it costs as little as Rs 133/day making it more convenient and economical than the local SIMs of most countries.
