In Moldova, "roam like at home" is definitely not yet in effect, as stated in the text, you can expect expensive roaming with a Czech sim card. Anyway, you can get a local Orange SIM with 140 GB of data at the airport for a ridiculous 49 lei.
The author must have read last year's promises somewhere and succumbed to optimism. It's still a work in progress and maybe this year...?
I've written this elsewhere, so I'll repeat myself: Orange eSIM can be bought upfront in their app for the same ridiculous price.
Otherwise, I wonder when the EU roaming nonsense will finally disappear from the text, actually the opposite - when it will finally become true. 😂
The duty-free shops are pretty good, especially the part with Moldovan products. You can still find pretty cheap Moldovan wine there, see the e-shop. https://dutyfree.md/ They just don't have anything from Milestii Mici, oddly enough.
