How to avoid Vodafone roaming charges

Before you fly, install a travel eSIM at home on Wi-Fi.
On landing, set mobile data to the eSIM and turn on data roaming for the eSIM only.
Turn data roaming off for your Vodafone SIM so background data doesn’t start a charge. You can still receive calls and texts.
