ANCHORAGE—GCI is making sure its customers can stay connected no matter where they travel in North America over summer vacation — and at a more affordable price. New agreements with industry roaming partners mean that talk, text, and data costs have decreased for GCI customers traveling through Canada and Mexico.

“Whether their travels take them to Kotzebue, Calgary, or Cancun, GCI customers will be able to stay connected with family and friends,” said GCI Chief Marketing Officer Kate Slyker. “GCI’s new international roaming agreements mean sharing travel tales with friends and family while on-the-go is more economical than ever.”
