Choosing the best eSIM for the Azores

Start with how you will use your phone on the islands. Maps between viewpoints, messages home, a few photos shared in the evening: most of that fits comfortably in a smaller plan. Video calls, streaming or working remotely call for more data.

Plans for Azores start at USD 5.10 and go up to 20 GB, with validity from 3 to 30 days. You can pick a short plan for a weekend on one island or a longer one for a slow trip across several.

Light, medium or unlimited

• Light use: a small data amount suits messaging and maps.
• Everyday use: a mid-sized plan gives room for photos, social apps and the odd call.
• Heavy use: if you would rather not count, a short unlimited plan is on sale.

Should you get an eSIM for your Azores trip?

If your phone supports eSIM and is unlocked, a travel eSIM saves you from hunting for a SIM card shop after a long flight. You buy before you leave, pay by card or Apple Pay, and your data is ready on arrival. Your usual SIM can stay in the phone, so you keep your home number for calls and texts.

What is the downside of an eSIM?

Two things matter before you buy. Your phone must support eSIM, and it must be unlocked. Check the list of phones that support eSIM first; most recent iPhone and many Android models are on it. These plans are prepaid data plans, so budget your usage and top up if you need more.

How to install your Azores eSIM

1. Pick your plan for Azores and pay by card or Apple Pay.
