  These days, you get most (plane) *tickets* electronically, mostly by
email, so you just make sure you have the ticket (mostly in PDF form)
locally on your phone, no (foreign ("at the other end") network
required, just the phone itself.

  Same for the *boarding passes*, they can often be saved locally on the
phone or/and are available in the airline's app on the phone, again no
network required. (In many (most? all?) cases, the boarding pass can be
saved as a screenshot, stored in a (electronic) wallet, etc..)

  That doesn't mean that printing tickets or/and boarding passes is not
a good idea, it is, but not for the lack of a network.

  FWIW, on our last trip to Austria, I had no printouts of our boarding
passes, rental car voucher and hotel booking. (But yes, we had *two*
phones! :-))
