T-Mobile Coverage Beyond is being launched by the telecom brand as part of its ongoing Un-carrier campaign to provide travelers with access to data when traveling to an array of locations.
The new coverage announcement will see subscribers with access to data in more than 210 countries around the world as well as free in-flight connectivity and streaming on flights with major airlines. T-Mobile customers will also receive 25-cents off every gallon of gas purchased at Shell through Labor Day along with up to 40% off select hotels and rental cars with Priceline.
The T-Mobile Coverage Beyond was touted by CEO Mike Sievert who said, "Our mission is to be the best in the world at connecting customers to their world, and that means making sure your phone just works wherever you go – even if you travel beyond our signal. We pioneered coverage in-flight and abroad, and today we’re going full throttle to change the game again. This is what the Un-carrier does – hunts down pain points, smashes them, and changes the game for good.”
