I have used Gmail with 2FA as long as it has been available and suggest if your account has any meaningful emails you do so whether traveling or not.
Yes, but what if you lose your phone? You'll never get in.

I travel and do not need a code to get into Yahoo or Gmail. This can be turned off I'm sure (since I have never been asked for a code while traveling).
