It's possible to download the next day's travel on Gmaps at a hotel with wi fi.. but it's a lotta messin about.
We try very hard to use the local phone network, data is cheap and getting cheaper.
In the past I have lugged a 5" screen Garmin, a bulky dash mount, the power cord and paid $$$ for current mapping for eu or us
We have also used an ipad with a local sim..
No more… local sim, iphone x (super loud directions and great battery life) and away we go…..

Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?

Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.

Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

But I just use my phone with Maps.me pre-loaded with where I'm going. No local SIM needed. No local network needed. It all works while in flight mode or data roaming off. The phone literally becomes a stand-alone GPS.
