Hi,
I am traveling to Lebanon. When I go through the international trip planner, it shows that for Lebanon, travelpass and the $100 international monthly plan are not available. The only option available is pay as you go.
Will my Unlimited Ultimate 15GB of data and unlimited talk and text work in Lebanon?

No, because Unlimited Ultimate has built-in Travel Pass for overseas coverage. If the country you're in isn't covered by Travel Pass or the monthly International Service Plan, then you're still not covered. If your phone is unlocked, I'd buy service from a local carrier and disable your Verizon number while you're in Lebanon (put in a vacation suspension so you pay a lower rate and your line doesn't work) to avoid the pay as you go rates, which get very expensive very quickly.
Vacation suspensions can only be done for a maximum of 90 days in one year. So if you are going to be away for longer than that and can't use Travel Pass, etc. overseas, try downgrading your plan to something cheaper if you're not under a contract before you leave because eventually your line is going to come back on with the usual billing. If you are under a contract...then unfortunately the only option you'd have is the 90 day max suspension and then your contract comes back on.
I'm not a Verizon employee, just another customer trying to help.

Hey there, Trombo, when using your Phone in Lebanon it is pay per use rates. Calls are $2.99 per minute, data is billed at $2.05 per MB, text is $0.05 to send and $0.50 to receive, picture/video messages are $0.25 to send and $0.50 to receive. While this destination is not covered by TravelPass or the monthly international plan, you may view covered destinations here: https://www.verizon.com/plans/travelpass-countries/ for future travels.
