- Watch your mobile data: roughly 3–7 GB/hour in 4K.

EU roaming and your mobile data
Travelling inside the EU has one big convenience: roaming rules mean your home mobile plan generally works across member countries at no extra cost. In practice, that lets you stream on the move using your normal data allowance — but streaming adds up fast, around 3–7 GB an hour in 4K, so keep an eye on any fair-use cap. Dropping to HD on mobile stretches your data a long way without spoiling the picture on a small screen.
Short hops between Nordic cities
The Nordics are made for quick trips, and your viewing keeps up. A weekend between Stockholm, Oslo, Copenhagen or Helsinki needs no new setup — the same login simply works in each. Train Wi-Fi can be patchy, so for the journey itself a phone on mobile data, or something downloaded before you leave, is the reliable choice; save the bigger screens for the hotel in the evening.
