Hi @Anonymous This is a customer to customer forum You have left it late to get a phone unlocked but follow this guide

http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Other-Products-Services/Unlocking-an-O2-phone-to-use-a-different-SIM-card/td-p/540294

And use this unlock form https://www.o2.co.uk/apps/help/help?qid=1&q1=2&route=unlocking&case=Handset%20Unlocking%20Form

If you are payg the phone will need to be 12months old before unlocking

If you can't get your original phone unlocked before you go... I would keep the idea of buying a small cheap phone as a second option .  Also think about using O2 travel if travelling to Europe https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/international/using-phone-in-europe
