There's nothing quite like jetting off to explore new places and all they have to offer.
But nothing forces us back into reality like coming home from an incredible adventure to a hefty roaming bill - which is sadly the case for many travelling outside of Europe.
But it's not all bad news. For those bitten by the wanderlust bug, eagerly awaiting their next adventure, Birmingham Airport is connecting travellers to the farthest corners of the world, and innovative solutions like Yesim are offering a more affordable alternative to standard roaming charges.
Travellers can fly directly from Birmingham to Cancun in Mexico, New York in the USA, Dubai in the UAE and various European cities - and whilst standard roaming charges in these destinations typically exceed £50 for a week of basic data, Yesim offers a cheaper alternative.
Currently, UK travellers visiting countries like Mexico or Bali can face daily roaming charges of £7.39 on top of their existing phone plans, potentially adding up to £103.46 for a two-week holiday.
Yesim's unlimited data packages cost just £29.70 for a week in the UAE and £25.20 for a week in Indonesia - a potential saving of more than £57 for the same two-week journey, with reliable coverage even in remote areas.
Yesim offers weekly packages with unlimited internet costing £18 for Mexico, £23.40 for the USA and £29.70 for the UAE. The provider also offers one plan that works across all countries on your route, including stopovers - International eSIM.
It's as easy as 1, 2, 3
The Yesim app works in more than 200 destinations. After downloading the app and selecting the plan which best suits your connectivity needs, you can activate your eSIM in just five minutes.
For Birmingham residents, this is particularly convenient, as you can set up your connection before departure and be online immediately upon arrival.
To get started on your Yesim journey, simply:
Verify eSIM compatibility in your phone settings Install the Yesim app Select a plan for your region(s)
Once paid, the service will automatically activate once you arrive in a new country. You can also easily extend your plan within the app, if necessary.
To find out more, visit the Yesim website or download the app via the App Store, or via Google Play.
Roaming charges and internet speeds may vary depending on factors such as availability and the destination. Yesim may not be available in some destinations. All prices were accurate at the time of writing.
