No one has commented on whether using wifi (much of which you can access for "free") is a viable alternative. I have found it very useful - especially if you make sure you stay in a hotel that doesn't charge you a fortune to access it. More and more hotel chains now seem to offer free wifi.
Many restaurants now post a WiFI logo card in their window. Some are open, some you have to get the security code from them.

Primarily uses my grandfathered U.S. T-M phone when traveling - 29¢/min. incoming in many countries. [Had to give this up last year when I changed plans.]
Now also make usee of T-M's UMA/wifi free calling from any place in the world w. access to wifi. Wife uses BB 8900, I use BB 9700, both UMA capable.
U.S. T-Mobile unlimited minutes - $40/mo. BB is $20 extra + $5 for SMS. |
