There are many people who own and fly a Mavic (and other drones) in Europe. It all works fine. We have satellites above this part of the globe too. Just like navigation in the car or on a phone, it works just as well on a drone. So no worries.

As for advice: check on how you can and may transport a drone safe in an airplane (like special battery bags). And check local law. Drone laws is or may be very different here compared to the US. In fact, it even varies per country. In most countries you may fly up to 120 meters (about 300 foot), must stay in line of sight, and you may not fly over buildings, cities, crowds of people, and not near airports. But again, it's different per country.

It works in both sides. The Global Positioning System (GPS) operates perfect in Europe.

Are you going to Austria? They are having a very strict law and the fines are really high. I'm going to Paragliding to Austria the next days and will have to leave my mavic at home.
If your traveling to different countries in Europe you should get confident with local flight regulation.
They also making differences between recreational and professional pilots.
But as sayed bevor. Watch airspace and dont fly higher than 100-120m.
