It you leave your phone is airplane mode, you won't pay roaming

My phone only goes about 9 hours on a charge, so I leave it off.
That is why I like my dumb as a rock phone (Samsung Convoy). The
battery lasts for days, 24/7 normal mode and even longer in airplane
mode.
It might be different if anyone called you. 
I use about 20 minutes a year.
My outgoing message is "Don't bother leaving a message, I never check
them. Call me at home".
90% of the time my cell is on a shelf in the closet.
As I said, I only take it when I travel.
I'm right the opposite, I don't have a home phone, have no need for one.
