Airtel launches ‘World Pass’ for international travel across 184 countries

Airtel launches ‘Airtel World Pass’ which will allow users to use one roaming plan for travel across 184 countries. This was to offer international travelers easy connectivity as India has seen a three times jump in the number of international travels post covid.

With this plan, if you are en-route at an airport or travelling to two or more countries, one pack now covers all your roaming needs.

This change comes on the back of extensive customer research conducted by Airtel that showed that many customers find International Roaming packs in general confusing across the whole global Telco industry. As a result, many are not connected when they want to be. Or they seek complex alternatives of temporary connections abroad. Airtel is now trying to solve this problem structurally with the launch of the Airtel World Pass.
