This plan is built for the classic Hanoi → Luang Prabang journey. Your phone connects to a local partner network on each side of the border, so you step off the bus or plane in Laos already online — maps, messages and ride-hailing all working. It also covers 30+ other Asian countries if your trip keeps going. (Heading deep into Thailand or Cambodia too? Check those legs separately — this plan is optimised for the Vietnam–Laos corridor.)
