How to choose the right plan
- Light use — maps, messaging and browsing — needs about 1 GB per day.
- Heavy use — social video, streaming or hotspotting a laptop — plan for 2-3 GB per day or pick the largest plan.
- Match the validity to your trip length, with a day or two of buffer for delays.
How activation works
- Buy the plan and receive your eSIM by email within minutes.
- Install it from your phone settings while still at home — no store visit, no plastic SIM.
- Land in Austria, enable the eSIM line, and you are online before leaving the airport.
All Austria eSIM plans
ÖBB tickets, U-Bahn maps and a weather check before you pay for a cable car: Austria is smoother with data. An eSIM is online at VIE before you ride the CAT into the city, with none of the roaming surprise at the German-speaking border.
If you are also touching Germany, Hungary or Italy, a Europe-wide plan is the calmer buy than three country SIMs.
