How many days will you be using data on this trip?
How the estimate works: for each activity below you enter rough hours per day. We multiply by your trip length and approximate per-hour data. The figures are estimates — actual usage depends on video quality, apps and settings.

2 What to do with the number
Once you have an estimate, use it to pick a plan size that has a little headroom — and if you’re on postpaid roaming, compare it against your carrier’s roaming rates with the Roaming Calculator.
These per-hour figures are typical estimates, not guarantees. Streaming in HD, hotspot use and background app refreshes can all change the real number.
