TravelKon Launches Europe eSIM, Offering Unlimited Data and Seamless Internet Connectivity to Empower Travellers
SYDNEY, AU / ACCESS Newswire / August 4, 2025 / Europe remains the world's top long-haul travel destination post-pandemic for travellers across the globe, including Australians as one of the largest visitor groups. According to the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), over 1.3 million Australians travelled to Europe in 2024. Yet, staying connected across multiple countries has troubled travellers with expensive roaming fees and coverage gaps. According to a survey by Finder, 60% of Australians experienced bill shock from international roaming during their travels.
TravelKon, Australia's trusted travel eSIM and SIM card provider, addresses these challenges with its new Europe eSIM unlimited data solution, covering 35 countries, including the United Kingdom (UK) and Turkey. This is part of TravelKon's broader mission to provide reliable, yet affordable and accessible connectivity solutions for travellers, as eSIMs could save up to 80% on mobile data costs.
Europe eSIM with Unlimited Data: TravelKon's Simple, Wide-Coverage Solution
Coverage gaps may leave travellers without internet when they need it most, whether it's for navigation, using translator apps, or keeping in touch with friends and family. Traditional roaming charges can cost $5-10 per day, while local SIM cards require constant swapping at borders. For trips across multiple European countries, these challenges can quickly add up. Constantly swapping SIM cards, juggling between carriers, and managing data limits can turn a dream getaway into a logistical nightmare.
Recognising this problem, TravelKon addresses this issue with its newly launched Europe eSIM, starting from just AU$2.72 per day for unlimited data. Unlike complex alternatives, TravelKon's Europe eSIM keeps things simple: connect across 35 countries with one plan-unlimited data, no bill shock, and no hidden fees.
From sharing Instagram posts in Santorini to making FaceTime calls from Amsterdam cafés, travellers enjoy seamless connectivity across Europe. The eSIM works perfectly for multi-city itineraries including London, Paris, Rome and Barcelona.
With most travellers visiting multiple countries, constant internet access becomes essential - for navigation between destinations, translation needs, social updates and spontaneous transport bookings. TravelKon's unlimited data solution eliminates these worries, allowing music streaming on long train journeys, instant photo uploads and mobile hotspot use without monitoring data limits.
Covering 35 countries including Australians' favourite destinations, the service reaches beyond major cities to rural villages, coastal towns and alpine resorts. Activation couldn't be simpler: buy online, scan your QR code before departure, and enjoy instant connection upon arrival in Europe.
What Travellers Love About TravelKon
This eSIM launch is tailored for travellers who need wide coverage and a simple setup. Sarah from Melbourne shared her experience: 'We used TravelKon's Europe eSIM for our three-week trip covering eight countries. The best part was not thinking about data - we could navigate, translate, and share freely. The setup was really simple, and it worked immediately in each new country.'
Moreover, TravelKon takes its commitment to deliver excellent service a step further by offering eco-friendly choices. TravelKon helps reduce plastic waste with a sustainable eSIM model, proving to travellers that they don't have to worry about leaving a large carbon footprint while travelling - one of the main concerns in recent years.
Meeting Modern Travel Demands with a Commitment to Excellence
As digital needs grow, TravelKon's Europe eSIM is committed to providing a practical solution for modern-day travellers. This stems from our ambitious vision: the freedom to connect, explore, discover, and share without compromise. This reflects TravelKon's commitment to delivering exceptional value and unparalleled customer service through three core missions:

Domino's opening fewer stores because of labour cost increases
Domino's Pizza Group has said it has opened fewer stores than expected as its franchisees have been 'cautious' due to higher labour costs linked to the Government's last budget. The pizza delivery specialist warned it would miss its original profit guidance for the year as it also highlighted 'weaker' sentiment among consumers, causing shares to plunge in early trading. It is among high street hospitality firms to have cautioned over 'tougher' market conditions recently, with Greggs also reporting pressure on customer demand last month. On Tuesday, the pizza chain – which has 1,381 stores in the UK and Ireland – said sales growth has been impacted by 'weak' consumer confidence in recent months. Andrew Rennie, chief executive of Domino's, said: 'There's no getting away from the fact that the market has become tougher both for us and our franchisees, and that's meant that the positive performance across the first four months didn't continue into May and June. 'Given weaker consumer confidence, increased employment costs and uncertainty ahead of the autumn statement, franchisees are taking a more cautious approach to store openings for the time being.' It said this has caused a 'short-term slowdown' in new stores but stressed that it expects this to pick up again next year. Domino's has opened 11 new stores so far this year and expects overall openings in the 'mid-20s' this financial year. The company had previously said it expected to open 'in excess of 50 new stores' this year. It came as the group also warned that profits would miss previous guidance due to weaker trading. Domino's told shareholders that it expects to deliver earnings between £130 million and £140 million for the year. It had previously said it was due to meet market expectations of between £140.8 million and £149.7 million. It came as the business revealed that system sales grew 1.3% to £777.8 million for the 26 weeks to June 29. Like-for-like sales were 0.1% lower for the half-year, as a positive first quarter was offset by a 0.7% decline in the second quarter, when delivery orders 'weakened'. The group added that 'softer' trading improved towards the end of July. Shares in Domino's Pizza Group fell by 19.4% to 198.2p in early trading on Tuesday.

FTSE 100 LIVE: Markets head higher again as earnings season rolls on
The FTSE 100 (^FTSE) and European stocks gained after the opening bell in London, buoyed for a second day as the recovery from last week's selloff continues and traders digest a slew of corporate earnings. In London, Tuesday morning saw earnings reports from oil major BP (BP.L) and drinks kingpin Diageo (DGE.L) amid a more upbeat mood following a worrying US jobs report on Friday, which missed economists' expectations. Markets are also looking to the Bank of England's next rate-setting meeting on Thursday, where a rate cut is being priced in. The cut would bring interest rates to their lowest levels in two and a half years. London's premier index opened 0.3% higher. Medical equipment manufacturer Smith & Nephew (SN.L) rose the most in the index after announcing a $500m share buyback programme. The more domestically-focused FTSE 250 (^FTMC) was 0.4% higher. The DAX (^GDAXI) in Germany gained 0.7%. Over in France, the CAC 40 (^FCHI) rose 0.4%. Meanwhile the pan-European STOXX 600 (^STOXX) headed 0.4% into the green. Hugo Boss beats Q2 expectations Reuters reported: Here's the BP chart BP reports $2.4bn second-quarter profit Yahoo Finance UK reporter Pedro Goncalves writes: BP (BP.L) reported second-quarter earnings on Tuesday that exceeded analyst expectations, as the oil major seeks to rebuild credibility with investors following a prolonged period of lagging performance relative to its peers. The company posted underlying replacement cost profit — its preferred measure of net income — of $2.35bn for the three months to June, comfortably ahead of the $1.81bn forecast by analysts, according to a consensus compiled by LSEG (LSEG.L). The figure compares with net profit of $2.76bn in the same quarter a year earlier, and $1.38bn in the first three months of 2025. Its quarterly dividend will rise to 8.32 cents from 8 cents and it will keep the pace of its share buyback programme at $750m for the second quarter, it said.

Diageo shares pop on 'reassuring results' for fiscal 2025
-- Diageo (NYSE:DEO) (LON:DGE) reported annual organic sales growth that exceeded analyst expectations, sending its shares roughly 5% higher in London trading. For the fiscal year ended June (FY25), net sales came in at $20.25 billion, down 0.1% on a reported basis but up 1.7% organically. That compares with company-compiled consensus estimates of $20.2 billion and a 1.4% organic increase. Earnings per share (EPS) reached 164.2 cents, ahead of the 161.6 cents expected. Pretax profit fell to $3.54 billion from $5.46 billion a year earlier, while EBIT declined 0.7%, though still slightly better than the 1.2% drop analysts had forecast. "We would expect shares to be better today as the business doubles down on the controllables," Jefferies analyst Edward Mundy said in a note. "As recovery becomes visible, we would expect leverage through the i/s, improving free cash flow (FCF) and better returns, which will allow the shares to rerate to north of 20x PE," he added. Separately, BofA analysts said Diageo delivered "reassuring results in an uncertain environment." Looking ahead, Diageo expects organic net sales growth in fiscal 2026 to be in line with this year's pace, citing a continued challenging environment. Organic operating profit is projected to grow at a mid-single-digit rate, above the 2.6% consensus cited by Jefferies.
