Weekly vs Monthly Data Passes: Which Wins?
The weekly versus monthly decision comes down to one number: how many days you actually need data.
- Weekly passes: $5 to $20 for 1 to 10 GB
- Monthly passes: $10 to $40 for 10 to 50 GB
- Break-even is usually around day 10
- Monthly always wins for stays over two weeks
Count your travel days first; if it is under ten, a weekly pass is the cheaper and simpler choice.
Add one buffer day to your estimate, because overage charges or top-ups cost more than a slightly larger plan.
