With O2 Travel, all of our customers can stay connected when they’re travelling across Europe this summer.

For just £1.99, we’ll give you enough data to keep your friends and family in the picture as you travel, with up to 10 Instagram photos, 1 hour browsing or checking up to 50 emails. So whether you’re looking for things to do and places to eat, checking in with the office or making your friends a little bit jealous, do it worry-free with O2 Travel.

For those wanting to talk, you can phone home from just 50 pence for up to an hour. Receiving a call is also subject to a 50p one off connection charge. It is then free to talk to for up to 60 minutes. For Pay and Go customers or Pay Monthly users who have run out of minutes in their package, calls are just 28 pence per minute to receive and 7 pence per minute to receive.

To celebrate the return of summer, we’re offering one lucky pair a trip-of-lifetime to Europe so you can test-drive O2 Travel for yourself. All you have to do is share a holiday snap on Twitter or Instagram and tag your picture with #o2travel. Get them in by 17 July to be in with a chance of winning the break.

We’ll pick up all the photos you post and Instagram legend Darren Seamark will choose his favourite from amongst them. The winning photograph will get a two-night, all-travel expenses paid break to Zagreb courtesy of O2 Travel. You’ll stay at one of the city’s best four star hotels and we’ll fly you there and arrange transfers to your hotel.
