International cell phone?
We are traveling to Cancun next month and I would like to have a cell phone so that we can be reached if there is an emergency with our kids. I saw many places online where we can rent a phone that will pick up service down there - anyone have a recommendation for a company you have actually used? tia!
Re: International cell phone?
If you have a tri- or quad-band phone with a SIM card you can just call your carrier and get them to unlock it. Then once you arrive you can get a SIM and buy some minutes--you can probably even get the chip at the airport, they're sold EVERYWHERE.
Alternatively, if you don't have a phone with these capabilitie (say, you have an iphone or something) you can just buy a cheap handset, SIM and load it with minutes as necessary. Shouldn't be more than $50, and then you can use the phone for future travel to the rest of the world where SIM cards are used.
