Local, Regional or Global eSIM: Which Plan Fits Your Trip?

One country, a multi-country tour or a trip across continents: here is how to choose between local, regional and global eSIM plans.

Local plans

A local eSIM covers a single country. Choose one if you are staying in one destination, for example a city break or a business trip.

Regional plans

A regional eSIM covers a group of countries, such as Europe. It suits multi-country trips because one plan keeps you connected as you cross borders, with no need to buy a new eSIM in each country.

Global plans

A global eSIM covers destinations across several continents. It suits long trips, cruises with port stops and frequent travellers who do not want to buy a new plan each time.
