Unless you live and travel within the EU. Then you can use your phone as much as you want and know that you won't get a higher bill than usual.
I'm always cautious about comparing the US to the EU too closely, but in this case it fits, as both are continent-wide common markets. If you "live and travel within the EU," it barely counts as international travel for economic concerns.
The rest of North America would like a word with you...
No more so than Switzerland and the former USSR west of the Urals, I suppose.
AFAIK, most of the pan-European plans cover the whole Schengen Area (including Switzerland), and the most of the former USSR boarders aren't all that porous, unlike the NAFTA boarders.
