 Hi I am due to travel to the Carribean but Ee offer no data packages, if wearing my Apple Watch and leave in flight mode so I don’t get charged for data will I still be Z Lee to use for steps, also would I have to turn of data roaming on the watch?

 

thank you

Hello @mags63. 

Welcome to the community. 

You can still use your watch to track your steps.

@mags63   Everything about your watch will work it just will not work with cellular data.    You can not use cellular data on the Apple Watch when outside the UK,  your data allowance is for UK usage only and your watch will not connect to a roaming network and there are no roaming options/data add ons you can use with the watch as roaming isn’t offered on a cellular watch at present. 
Think of it as using a none cellular Apple watch when outside the UK as that’s how it will be.   The watch still tracks your steps and reports this to your iPhone and that has nothing to do with cellular data.
