Everybody loves to go on a holiday, but the preparation process is never as fun. There are just too many things to take note of and sometimes, the prohibitive costs can add up to be quite a headache.
For one, data roaming packages for faraway destinations like USA and Europe could easily cost more than your monthly mobile phone bill. And unfortunately, internet access is not something we can simply do without these days.
Changi Recommends Latest Money Saving Deals

Introducing ChangiWiFi’s latest Pay-Per-GB plan which allows travellers to USA and Europe to rent a Wi-Fi router for just $32 per trip to satisfy all their overseas data needs.
