Travelling from U.S. to France

My son will be travelling to France for a one month school program. I called CricketWireless support and said that he would by a local eSim (Orange) and I wanted to make sure we were not going to get with a huge bill because Cricket was roaming of foreign networks. Support said since we didn't have International services there would be no charge. I find this a little hard to believe.

This phone is an old iphone XR (I told him to just get a new one), but I wasn't sure how to deactivate the Cricket Sim and use the eSim. I don't recall seeing any roaming settings but maybe I need to check again. Maybe he is using a physical sim card. If so, should we just pop it out?

I assume this phone is unlocked. I can't remember where we bought it.

Any tips or advice? Thank you.
