Online before the seatbelt sign goes off.
Our pick: Breeze eSIM. A UK travel eSIM you install at home and switch on when the wheels touch down — maps, taxi apps and WhatsApp on a local network before you reach passport control. No plastic SIM, no contract, and your plan’s clock doesn’t start until it first connects at your destination.
- Prepaid
- Keep your number
- Hotspot included
- 14-day refund if unused

Three signs between you and the internet.
-
At home
Pick your country or region on Breeze, choose a data size or an unlimited day pass, and pay once. Prepaid — you see the price before you fly.
-
One-tap install
One-click install on iPhone and Android, or scan the QR code Breeze emails you. It’s added as a second line — your own SIM stays in the phone.
-
Wheels down
Turn on data roaming for the Breeze line (and off for your home SIM). Validity starts on first use at your destination — not at purchase.

Before you buy
Does your phone take an eSIM?
Breeze says every iPhone made since 2018 and most new Android models can. Quickest check: open your dialer and type the code — if an EID number shows up, you’re set. The phone also has to be network-unlocked; Breeze runs a device check before checkout.
Questions at the gate
Do I get a phone number?
No — Breeze plans are data-only, with no regular calls or SMS. Your own number stays on your regular SIM, and WhatsApp, iMessage and other messaging apps work over the Breeze data connection.
How do I avoid roaming charges from my home carrier?
Set the Breeze line as your mobile-data line, turn data roaming on for it, and keep roaming off on your home SIM. Breeze is prepaid and never bills over your allowance — you pay exactly what you see.
When does my plan start counting?
The first time the eSIM connects to a network in your destination — not when you buy or install it. Install before you leave; it starts when you land. Plans not activated within six months expire.
Can I share data with my laptop?
Yes. Breeze lists hotspot/tethering as included at no extra charge — tethered data simply comes out of your plan.
What if I don’t end up using it?
Per Breeze’s refund policy, you can get a full refund within 14 days of purchase if the plan hasn’t been activated and no data has been used. Refunds go back to your card within 3 business days.
What if I run low?
Breeze lets you know when you’re close to your limit, and you can top up or add another plan from its website — connect to Wi-Fi first.
