Aside from free international roaming, the rest of what you mention there can be had in one way or another on VZW or AT&T. In-flight texting and internet usage can be accomplished via any WiFi connection on board with either competing carrier. With AT&T, at least, if you don't use the data, it rolls over and you have a giant pool of extra available to you that doesn't expire, so you still get what you paid them for.

And just like AT&T and VZW's Unlimited plans, T-Mobile's isn't truly unlimited "HD 4G LTE" either (Gotta read that fine print):

This offer is only for customers who received a text message between 9/7/16 and 9/14/16 notifying them. After 2/28/19, your current plan allotments will apply. If you do not currently receive Data Stash, you will continue to be ineligible for Data Stash with this offer. For questions about the offer call Customer Care at 1-877-453-1304. Offer rate plan name will be reflected on your bill within the next 2 bill cycles. Coverage not available in some areas. Network Management: Service may be slowed, suspended, terminated, or restricted for misuse, abnormal use, interference with our network or ability to provide quality service to other users, or significant roaming. On-device usage is prioritized over tethering usage, which may result in higher speeds for data used on device. See T-Mobile.com/OpenInternet for data management details.
These are the same restrictions AT&T and VZW impose on the subscribers of their Unlimited plans. T-Mobile is permitted to exercise this clause however they see fit on whomever they want at any time.

Regarding "that's why it is cheaper" AT&T and Verizon have better coverage because these guys have low band frequencies which allows better penetration therefore longer range in receiption whereas T-Mobile & Sprint have high band frequencies. Two towers by T-Mobile would need to be deployed in order to cover same area AT&T and verizon has in 1 tower. Read more (research) about it and you will understand
You, literally, just told us all how his statement is correct.

So what was the point of your post here again?
