Before the plane takes off - don't forget your digital luggage!

The swimming trunks are ready, the passport has been found (after just 20 minutes of panic) and the countdown to take-off is on. But wait a minute - do you have your network under control? 🌐✈️

After all, what good is the most beautiful sunset if you can't post it because your cell phone is chilling in a dead zone? Or if you suddenly only see “No service” when you're abroad - and not because you're at the spa. 😅
Before your smartphone goes on vacation, give it a quick tech check. Don't worry, it won't take long - we promise! And you'll save yourself searching for Wi-Fi like a coconut on a desert island. 🏝️📱

Here's our checklist so you don't suddenly find yourself without a connection abroad:
(Roaming? Already done! You're practically the travel pro among smartphones - your network is ready for adventure while others are still looking for the settings in the menu. 😎✈️)

✅ Check roaming package - In the Sunrise Cockpit
✅ Set cost limit - So that vacations don't become a cost trap
✅ Deactivate VoLTE & WiFi calling if no calls are possible abroad
✅ Set network mode to 4G/5G (not 5G only)
✅ Activate manual network selection if no network is available
✅ Activate data roaming - both in the cell phone and in Sunrise Cockpit
✅ Sunrise TV abroad? - Only limited availability
✅ Attention! - Not all countries are included (e.g. Turkey, Kosovo)

Sun, beach and signal - how to use the network on vacation

You're lying under palm trees, sipping a drink with an umbrella - and suddenly your cell phone is charging slower than you are after the third mojito. 😅

Don't panic! Maybe your smartphone just needs a little guidance abroad, because even if you're in vacation mode, your network doesn't want to be left in the shade. A few little tips will keep you both relaxed - you on the beach, your phone on the net.

📶 Slow internet? - Switch network manually or prefer 4G
📞 No calls possible? - Check VoLTE/WiFi calling settings
📱 Phone number abroad - don't forget +41!
📱 Sunrise customer service abroad - you can reach them on +41 58 777 01 01
📺 Sunrise TV - only limited use abroad
📵 Voicemail costs - even if you don't pick up the phone, costs may still be incurred - for you and the caller!

Back in the WIFI - time for the digital flight home

Welcome back to everyday life - the sand is still trickling out of your shoes, but your cell phone still thinks it's on a trip around the world. 🌍📱

Before you wonder why your data volume suddenly feels like jet lag again, treat your device to a short flight home: a few clicks and your smartphone is back in Switzerland - ready for the next Zoom call instead of sunset.

🏠 Back home again? Then:

🔄 Switch network mode back to “automatic”
📲 Deactivate data roaming on your cell phone and/or My Sunrise
📞 Reactivate VoLTE & WiFi calling
📊 Check consumption in My Sunrise
📧 Check billing overview in My Sunrise - better safe than sorry!
