Bharti Airtel has announced new plans to its IR portfolio that will make it simpler, more affordable and completely hassle-free for customers. The company has unveiled India’s first unlimited* IR plans that offers unlimited data across 189 countries.  

Additionally, for the long-staying NRI community, Airtel also launched a unique recharge plan for Rs. 4000 with one-year validity. The plan offers 5GB data and 100 voice minutes for use when abroad, while in India customers can use the same plan and get 1.5GB daily data and unlimited call benefits. The plan gives customers a hassle-free connectivity experience anywhere across the 189 countries and use the same number while in India without having to do a separate recharge.

Siddharth Sharma, Director Marketing and CEO – Connected Homes, Bharti Airtel, said, “At Airtel, we are dedicated to simplifying our customers lives and delivering greater value and convenience to them. We have dramatically simplified our IR plans that will truly redefine our value proposition for customers and give them the freedom to use data and voice generously while roaming the world. We remain continuously committed to delivering solutions that meet our customers’ ever-evolving needs.” 

Customers will continue to enjoy other IR benefits with these plans that include: 

  • In-flight connectivity, auto activation of services upon landing overseas, 24×7 contact centre support.
  • One Plan for travel to 189 countries. No confusion over which zone or pack to select. No need for multiple packs across multiple countries or transit airports.
  • Auto renewal feature for frequent travelers. This will remove the need to buy the pack multiple times and will enable hassle free travel
  • Affordable packs. These will be more affordable than most in-country / local sims and will eliminate the hassle and expense of acquiring local SIM cards, providing globetrotters with a simplified solution to stay connected.
  • All control will rest in the customer’s hands. They will be able to manage their entire International roaming needs on the Airtel Thanks app with updates on usage, billing amount and addition of data or minutes as needed.
