AFFORDABLE, LONGER ROAMING SERVICES OFFERED AS GLOBAL TRAVEL RESTRICTIO­NS EASE

-

PREPARE your passports and get ready for the reopening of internatio­nal travel. As you explore the world, no need to worry about connectivi­ty overseas as Globe Roaming has the right data packs for you, whether for a 3-day or 30-day stay.

Japan is now accepting travelers from the Philippine­s, which is among the 98 “blue” countries whose travelers are no longer required to get tested or quarantine­d for Covid-19 upon arrival. For those traveling to Japan, Globe (www.globe. com.ph) is currently offering 5G services through Softbank.

You can also start applying for a short-term tourist visa to visit your favorite K-pop paradise, South Korea, where Globe is offering 4G and 5G roaming services through SK Telecom and KT Corp.

“The world is gradually opening up two years since the pandemic put travel on hold. More Filipinos are now opting to spend more time in other countries to make up for lost time in terms of travel, and they will be on the lookout for the safest and most convenient way to stay connected. As they explore the world once again, Globe will be with them and deliver data roaming that’s within their reach, even for longer travel periods,” said Coco Domingo, vice president for Globe Postpaid and Internatio­nal Business.

As Filipinos prepare to maximize their trips abroad, Globe has introduced discounted data roaming called Roam Surf Longer Stay. You can now enjoy more gigabytes for more days while spending less. Simply choose from 3, 5, 7, 15 or 30-day offers which come with 3GB up to 20GB data, and get up to 50-percent off (versus the daily Roam Surf rate).

To avail of Roam Surf Longer Stay, simply dial *143# and follow the prompts.

This easy-to-use roaming service not only becomes more affordable the longer you are abroad but is also very convenient. You can safely connect from your phone without lugging around another device such as a pocket Wifi or buying a local SIM.

“Roam Surf Longer Stay is meant for cross-country travels as it is currently available in over 70 countries worldwide. Longer Stay promos also give you bigger savings the longer you use it,” Domingo said.

Globe is all set to provide connectivi­ty requiremen­ts of Filipino tourists with the expected surge in global travel. Despite strict travel restrictio­ns during the height of the global health crisis, Globe accelerate­d its roaming rollout, particular­ly 5G, to more countries in Asia, the Middle East and Europe as part of its commitment to deliver world-class connectivi­ty.
