Connectivity allows me to use the navigation apps to drive vehicles in European countries. Sometimes there are areas where service drops out.

What is an eSIM?

An eSIM is like a SIM card, but digital. It's built into your phone and functions just like a physical SIM.

Instead of having to go hunt for a physical SIM card, you can purchase an eSIM directly from the Airalo app, install it on your device, and instantly connect to a mobile network at your destination.

What is an Airalo eSIM plan?

An Airalo eSIM plan gives you access to mobile data, call, and text services. Choose between local, regional, or global eSIM plan to get online in 200+ destinations. You can also choose between Airalo's Unlimited packages for peace of mind, or choose a specific data package, over a number of days. Simply download the Airalo app, purchase your chosen eSIM, install it on your device, and connect to a mobile network when you arrive at your destination!

How does it work?

  1. Install the Airalo app.
  2. Purchase an eSIM plan for your travel destination.

  4. Turn on your eSIM and connect to the internet upon arrival.

eSIM FAQ

What does an Airalo eSIM package come with?

An Airalo package comes with a fixed amount of data (e.g., 1GB, 3GB, 5GB, etc.) valid for a specified time period (e.g., 7 days, 15 days, 30 days, etc.). You can also choose Unlimited data packages for a specified period. Airalo also offers calls, texts, and a phone number for 30+ destinations. If you run out of data or your validity period expires, you can top up your eSIM or download a new one right from the Airalo app.

How much does it cost?

eSIMs from Airalo start from US$4.50 for 1GB of data.

Does an eSIM come with a number?

Some eSIMs come with a phone number so you can call, text, and access data. Check your eSIM description for details before purchase.

 

What devices are ready?

You can find a regularly updated list of eSIM-compatible devices at this link:

Who is Airalo best for?

  • Anyone who travels, whether it's for business or vacation.
  • Digital nomads who need to stay connected to work while abroad.
  • Crew members (e.g., seafarers, flight attendants, etc.) who need to stay connected while they travel.
  • Anyone who wants an easy and affordable data alternative to their home network.

Can I use my SIM card at the same time?

Yes! Most devices allow you to use multiple SIMs and/or eSIMs simultaneously. You can keep your primary line active to receive text messages, calls, and 2FA authentication (but remember, they'll be subject to roaming fees).

Happy travels!

Frustrating reboot times for last 3 years

Having the ease of so many countries of use is quite useful. The app is not intuitive, really. I purchased a second sim that was the same, thinking that was what the protocol was when the app notified me that was the option or a top up ( not a phrase I was familiar with in this context)when the current month expired. Now it just sits there unusable because since I have the first one already it won't let me activate it.
My biggest gripe is that it takes 20 to 45 minutes to 'reboot' to the different country! We travel to a different country every few months in our retirement lifestyle. Being offline for that long when you need to access maps, contact a taxi, contact your lodging or check on your flight status is very frustrating and makes the usefulness of the app drop to zero.

I just love using Airalo

I just love using Airalo! Since I found out they existed, a few years ago, I’ve been using in all my travels and it works really well everywhere, it’s absolutely simple, easy and fast to enable the e-SIM, I always leave the plane already with internet connection, talking to my folks that I’ve landed safe and planning my way to the hotel. I also think the price is ok considering all the convenience and good service

The connection to the cellular network…

The connection to the cellular network went set to automatic often produces no connection. When I turn off automatic, I can manually select a network. This works, but then the available cellular network change, and I lose my connection.

Great service, and reliable connection

After facing problems installing the eSIM I bought from a competitor which I will not name, and spending an hour with their helpline, I decided to try Airalo. Best decision ever: the eSIM installed like a breeze and the connection has been flawless. Very happy with the service provided by Airalo during my trip to China.
I recommend.
