Common questions
Does one eSIM work in every European country?
Only in the countries on that plan's list. Airalo Eurolink listed 41 countries and Holafly's Europe plan said 33 when we checked. Countries outside the EU are where the lists differ most.
What's the cheapest way to stay connected in Europe for three months?
If you use Wi-Fi most of the time, a long-validity fixed plan. On Nov 7, 2026, Airalo's Eurolink 50 GB plan for 90 days was $100.00. Unlimited plans for 30 days were $71.00 (Airalo) and $76.50 (Holafly), so three months would cost roughly three times that.
