Prepaid SIM with Cheap Roaming for a Trip to Russia

Looking for a prepaid SIM to buy at a retail place like Aldi or Office works etc. Not online. My dad is flying back to Russia next Friday 24th. He needs a prepaid SIM with roaming so I can call him in Dubai and Moscow while he waits between flights either phone call or just data SIM for what's app. Please advice on a SIM a nd plan. Only need for two three days while in transit. Thanks

  • Why can’t he just use wifi?

  • Dubai wifi is pretty good as far as airport wifi’s go.

    • You can message through whatsapp but whatsapp calls (& other messaging calls) are blocked in Dubai airport Wifi

      • I’ve made FaceTime audio calls there with no problems…? Would have been April 2019 though

        • I don't know about facetime calls, but Whatsapp & Skype calls have never worked for me (& others). I was last there in February this year, and neither of those worked. but messaging was fine.

          • @BOGOF: That’s frustrating re: those audio calls. What about sending voice clips as messages and having a conversation that way?
