@Travelling 

It's best to have the O2 travel bolt on. But check your MyO2 to see if it's already enabled.

It's also wise to call customer service to check your account allows international roaming.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

If your phones are unlocked you would be better off getting a 3 PAYG sim or even a local sim from AT&T ot T Mobile. when you get to the US.

You will have no problems then.

If you choose to go with O2, I hope you are staying where there is plenty of free Wifi @Travelling

O2 really don't do the USA well at all, O2 Travel or Travel Inclusive is wasted money and time.
