# What happens to my International Roaming in transit? Will I be charged for data during transit?

## It is highly recommended that you put your phone on airplane mode while in transit to avoid bill shock.

In fact, we recommend to leave your phone on airplane mode until you reach your destination to avoid any unexpected charges you may incur. 

Customers are responsible for PayGo country rates if you use data, talk, and or SMS while traveling to your final destination. For more information please contact Customer Success or view our other FAQs regarding PayGo.

*International Roaming is only available on new 5G network accounts*
