Looking for suggestions to stay (appropriately) connected while visiting Europe.
This summer my daughter and I will travel from the US to Barcelona, Madrid, and Munich with her class. The trip will last less than two weeks,
Equipment: two iPhone X[s]'s, locked on AT&T. (EDIT: These are ten-X’s. The plural of Xs. 
)
What makes the most sense?
Thank you!
Steve
When we go abroad I just get AT&T Passport for both our phones. It’s not the cheapest way but for me it’s the least bother.
It you’re locked into AT&T you have three options
Or just be content with hotel and public wifi. Myself I enjoy the disconnection which also saves quite a bit of $$$. Having said that, roaming packages have really come down recently if you can tame the data usage. $15 for 1gig over 6 days with no sim swap hassle is pretty good.
tip: in Europe 1 sim should be enough for all countries if roaming is allowed on that sim. You can then use it in the entire EU without extra charge.
Yeah, just get a normal subscription without any contract period at your first stop, pay for a month, and then use it throughout. The only problem is you might have to have a local address, but just use the hotel. Just remember to cancel before the month is out.
Also, if in doubt ask at the hotel before the phone store - the hotel wants to help you, the phone store wants the opposite 
Are you sure they are locked phones? Reason I ask is that if purchased via Apple Upgrade Program, the devices are actually unlocked. If you bought them through AT&T Next, then yes, they are locked and your options are quite limited, as AT&T won’t unlock a device until it is fully paid off (if purchased on Next installment program). Your options with AT&T are Passport and International Day Pass, the last one probably too expensive for your use case.
They are part of the NEXT program.
