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 Puerto Rico, enable the eSIM line, and you are online before leaving the airport.
All Puerto Rico eSIM plans
Uber from SJU, a timed El Yunque QR, and a ferry that moved: Puerto Rico runs on US-style apps with Caribbean weather. An eSIM is online in arrivals for visitors whose home carrier does not quietly include the island.
Install it before you fly. Some US plans already roam here; many overseas plans do not. Read your home coverage, then decide. The rainforest will not wait while you stand at a kiosk.
