Should I get travel insurance?

Yes, travel insurance is a policy that reimburses you for the money you lose from non-refundable deposits and payments when something goes wrong on your trip. These problems can range from lost baggage to flight delays to medical problems. It is best to get insurance to ensure you are covered if something happens.

Do I need an international plan for my cell phone?

Most major carriers have roaming agreements, so you can still tap into your data, but you may have to pay an extra fee for that right to use it. Don't hesitate to contact your cell phone carrier for the best options.
