AT&T Resources to Assist International Travelers

To help travelers stay connected and manage their wireless costs, AT&T offers a variety of resources to help customers. AT&T's Travel Guide (www.att.com/travelguide) allows customers to create an itinerary with rate information for up to ten international destinations as well as review discounted voice and data packages. The tool allows customers to input information about their wireless device so accurate rate-plan information is presented.

"The ability to use your everyday AT&T device around the world makes international travel easier and more convenient," said Bill Hague, executive vice president of International for AT&T's wireless unit. "We provide our customers with the complete solution to stay in touch with family, friends, and business colleagues while abroad - all on the same wireless number and device they use at home."

AT&T Offers Smartphone and LaptopConnect Users New International Rates

Smartphone and LaptopConnect users now have new options for using data abroad at discounted rates. AT&T has increased the number of countries in which it offers discounted data rates and is offering two new additional plans with larger "buckets" - 50 MB of data in 67 countries for smartphone users, and 5 GB of data in the U.S. plus 200 MB in 67 countries for LaptopConnect users.

With access to e-mail, Web browsing, and other applications that can use a significant amount of data, smartphone, iPhone, and laptop users might find themselves using more data than they thought while traveling abroad.
