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.

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.
