Pick by travel style

🧳 Short tripFor up to a week around Manila, Cebu and Boracay, 3–5GB is usually enough for maps, rides and everyday messaging.

🚆 Multi-city tripChoose about 10GB/30 days and confirm hotspot support if you need to share data with another device.

🏞️ Driving or remote areasInter-island routes and small islands can be patchy. Prefer Smart/Globe multi-network access and keep key details offline.
