Yes, it would pause DATA ROAMING charges only. If you get or make a voice call using the carrier you might be charged for roaming calls.


You could also turn off the Canadian SIM as well, just to be extra sure.

thanks for the advice. Its very difficult for seniors to figure out. When at the Apple store the employee told me that he had used an esim on a trip and had technical issues that he had to figure out but could not advise about my questions. Anymore advise on this would be well received as i don't have the technical knowledge to figure it out when we land. Thank you
