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

About Airalo

Written by the company

Stay connected wherever you travel. With an Airalo eSIM (digital SIM), stay connected easily in 200+ destinations worldwide. No roaming fees or hidden costs — just easy, affordable, global connectivity.

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!

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.

The installation process is not…

The installation process is not straightforward, at least on my Motorola Neo. Took 30 mins on chat to install. Same questions are repeated. Connection drops out and back again randomly. Thought my connection dropped because I ran out of data then topped up only for my total data available to be way more than I need and what was actually available. Data use/low level notifications would be useful.

They don’t offer countries only single networks

What an absolute shambles. All I wanted was a data plan for Canada. I bought 30 g. For 30 days. I had a few issues initially which their chat sorted. Then it stopped working completely. 6 hours later on chat, still unresolved and they want me to buy more items. They got me connected (but replacing 20gb with 1gb). I said that this worked so please transfer my days and data but they refused to, offering a refund which is no good to me. I persisted but different agents take over the conversation and go through the same steps. They have the resolution but they won’t transfer data already paid for. Beware that they may say a country but will only offer one network provider within that country. Steer clear and never again

Stay far far away from Airalo

Stay far far away from Airalo, these people are crooks, plain & simply. I bought a plan, paid for it up front in good faith, & it never worked. I took it to two phone stores & they couldn't make it work either, even though it said it was installed & completed. When I asked for money back, they lied & said I used the phone for 2 days, when I was unable to make a single call. They have no customer service available even though they say "24-7," Impossible to speak to a live agent which further proves their deceptive disengenuous way of doing business. They are Nothing but crooks & liars. They are in the business of cheating hard working people out of their money without any avenue of recourse. What a horrible deceitful company.

Airalo disappointed us in a thorough test

Tested Airalo against Jetpac across Indonesia, Korea, China, HK, Macao, and Taiwan. Jetpac was cheaper, offered noticeably faster internet, and connected automatically without requiring any manual setup at each border cross. Airalo constantly required manual switching. Jetpac is hands down the easier and better value option.

I was not able to install an use my eSIM. This is the first time it ever happens, Airalo is usually a seamless experience and this time it just didn’t worked. Paid for the service but wasn’t able to activate. Had to pay for another vendor.
