Frequently asked questions
How far ahead should I buy an eSIM?
Buy and install it a few days before you fly, while you still have stable Wi-Fi. The plan only starts counting days once it connects in the destination country.
Will the network be congested with so many people?
Very busy events can slow the network down near the centre. Download tickets and offline maps ahead of time, and agree on a fixed meeting point.
Which plan should I pick for several countries in one trip?
Pick a regional plan (Europe, for example) so one eSIM covers every country you pass through without swapping plans.
Does my phone support eSIM?
Most iPhones from XS onwards and many recent Android models do. Every event guide links to a checker you can run against your model.
