As international travel picks up for the summer season, Orange Belgium is expanding its roaming offer with solutions that make staying connected outside the European Union simpler, more predictable and easier to manage. The new Daily Travel offer and the recently introduced Travel Pass help both residential and business customers avoid unexpected roaming costs while choosing the option that best matches their travel habits and connectivity needs.
Following successful launches in Spain, Romania and Poland, Orange Belgium is now launching Daily Travel in Belgium as of 9 July. The new offer complements the Swiss Travel and Travel Pass solutions launched this past spring. Together, these options give customers more choice when travelling outside the European Union and aim to provide greater visibility and control over roaming costs from the moment they set foot abroad.
Roaming solutions for different travel profiles
Activation for the first offer, Daily Travel, depends on the customer profile. While all residential customers benefit from automatic activation, only new business customers who sign up as of 9 July will see it enabled automatically. Existing business users must manually opt in. Once set up, Daily Travel is triggered when eligible customers start using roaming outside the EU in one of the supported destinations. For 4 EUR per day for residential customers (or 3.30 EUR excluding VAT for business accounts), travelers receive 1 GB of data valid for one calendar day. The offer covers around 50 popular destinations outside the EU, including Switzerland, Turkey, Morocco and the United States, expanding Orange Belgium’s roaming footprint by roughly 30 additional destinations. Because Daily Travel only activates when customers actually use mobile data abroad, it helps avoid unexpected roaming charges while providing immediate connectivity when needed.
Alongside Daily Travel, Orange also offers Travel Pass, designed for customers who travel more frequently or stay abroad for longer periods. The pass includes 7 GB of data, 120 roaming and international call minutes, and 120 SMS messages valid for 15 calendar days for 30 EUR for residential customers (or 24.79 EUR excluding VAT for business users). Customers can easily activate the package before or during their trip via their customer zone or My Orange. Travel Pass offers a cost-effective alternative for longer stays while giving customers greater flexibility and predictability when using mobile services abroad.
Christophe Dujardin, Chief Consumer Officer at Orange Belgium: “Whether travelling for business or leisure, customers increasingly expect to stay connected wherever they go. With Daily Travel and Travel Pass, we make roaming outside the EU more transparent and easier to manage. These solutions give customers greater control over their connectivity abroad while helping them avoid unexpected charges and enjoy a smoother travel experience.”
Werner De Laet, Chief Enterprise Officer at Orange Belgium: “Summer remains one of the busiest travel periods of the year, with more Belgians travelling beyond Europe’s borders. By expanding our roaming offer with additional destinations and flexible usage options, we want to ensure customers can stay connected from the moment they arrive, without worrying about complex tariffs or unexpected costs.”
How to make the most of your roaming options
Three roaming tips for consumers:
1. Plan ahead before departure: Confirm your destination is covered by Daily Travel or Travel Pass beforehand and activate the roaming pass before departure.
2. Choose the right roaming option for your trip: Daily Travel is ideal for short stays. Travel Pass offers better value for longer trips.
3. Use mobile data wisely: Connect to trusted Wi-Fi networks when available and switch on mobile data only when you need it. Monitor your usage through the My Orange app.
Three roaming tips for businesses:
1. Align roaming solutions with travel patterns: Direct employees toward Daily Travel for short worry-free business trips and Travel Pass for longer assignments.
2. Build roaming awareness into travel policies: Share roaming guidelines to help employees avoid costs and encourage them to monitor data consumption while abroad.
3. Stay connected from arrival: Ensure travelling employees have a roaming solution in place for seamless business continuity abroad.
