“I bought 14 300GB eSIMs for Europe and they all stopped working when they reached 35GB. I filed a complaint with AirHub and they told me they didn't actually provide 300GB and only offered 35GB. I asked for a refund and they never gave it to me. That company is a scam. Stay away if you don't want to be scammed.

AIRHUB is a SCAM. They are thieves who steal your money and give you eSIMs with less GB than they offer.”

“10gb sim used across Europe. Worked great for 10 days, then suddenly the speed just dropped to 40kbps despite still showing 5G.

Customer service non-existant. No response to live chat or useful info online so had to buy another sim from jetpac.”

“When the eSIM was connected with a supported network, it was great.

Unfortunately, the Maya eSIM wasn't smart enough to only choose supported networks. More often than not, it would choose a network that *wasn't* supported, meaning I'd have 5-bars of service but no data.

Maya support was helpful to point out that I could set my iPhone to "manual" and then choose a supported network, but that was a freakin' nightmare. We were choosing new networks multiple times per day.

Bad experience.”

Airalo Austria

“Speeds are 32Mb download and 3Mb upload. Impressive even if not stellar fast. Yes I would recommend Airalo. First attempt using an ESIM in Europe. Far more convenient given the limited option available when we arrived in Venice on route to Austria.”

MTX Connect Austria

“Perfect, reliable and flawless experience in all countries with good 4G speeds (15-25mbps)!
I used the „pay as you go“ plan!
Easy to choose and switch via the app.
Refill/prepay is also done via the app! The only minor catch, minimum refill amount is 10€ and it‘s 10€ steps from here (10,20,30...)
Overall really good experience!!”

Austria Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Austria

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Austria, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

Austria offers more than 210 travel eSIM providers and over 16, 600 prepaid data plans. With such a wide variety of options, travelers can easily find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Austria?

Unlimited data eSIM options are available for travelers visiting Austria. Providers such as Earth Esim, abesteSIM, ASIMGO, Roamify, MicroEsim, Yesim, Giga.Tel, EtravelSIM, esimzon, Truely, Orange Travel, and FairPlay all offer plans with no data cap. Most of these plans allow tethering and may throttle speeds, with some specifically limiting maximum throughput to 1 Mbps, 5 Mbps, or 10 Mbps. The price for an unlimited plan varies from about $1.49 to nearly $29.88 USD, depending on the validity period and provider. When choosing a plan, review the speed limits and tethering policies to ensure they match your usage expectations.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Austria?

A1 Telekom Austria: The largest mobile operator in Austria, offering extensive 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G coverage.
Magenta Telekom: A subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, providing comprehensive 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G services.
Drei (Three Austria): Owned by CK Hutchison Holdings, offering 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and expanding 5G services.

In addition to these major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), Austria has several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that offer mobile services by leasing access from the major carriers. Notable local MVNOs include HoT Hofer Telekom and Spusu. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Austria?

Travel eSIMs that provide a phone number and SMS for Austria are available from several providers. GlobaleSIM, Airalo, Orange Travel, and EtravelSIM offer such plans with data caps ranging from 1 GB to 10 GB and validity periods from one to thirty days. Prices begin at USD 4.00 with GlobaleSIM’s 1 GB, 7‑day plan.

GlobaleSIM gives an outbound and inbound voice line and inbound SMS using a US/Canada phone number (dialing code +1), so the number is not a local Austrian SIM. Airalo’s Servus Austria+ plan offers both inbound/outbound voice and SMS on a local Austrian number (dialing code +43). Orange Travel’s Austria plan uses a Polish number (dialing code +48) and includes full voice and SMS, while EtravelSIM uses a UK number (dialing code +44) and supplies inbound/outbound voice and SMS. Each plan allows you to receive calls and texts in Austria, though the phone number may not be locally based. Travelers can always fall back to data‑only eSIMs and use VoIP apps for voice and messaging.
