This video presents the results of Airalo’s travel eSIM testing across popular tourist spots in Bali, Indonesia, covering speed performance, latency, local network connectivity, and IP address details.
I used it only for a few days, but it worked without any issues. The signal was consistently available, and I was able to use Personal Hotspot to share data with my laptop, which was really convenient. However, the price is definitely not on the cheap side. Without the promo code discount, it wouldn't have been my first choice.
Just bought esim. It installed successfully, but the is “no service” tag. Support for not answering, pulling me constant automatic texts in WhatsApp.
I noticed in the Airalo app that traffic I just bought aka “my package” is “not active”. There is explanations or guide on how to “activate” the paid and installed esim.
It worked really well for my trip to Jakarta. You just need to change APN and turn on data roaming, then it connects to XL or Indosat 4G in Indonesia. Speed is good and stable, ping is acceptable (it roams through Singapore). Overall good experience. Recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Airalo offer unlimited data eSIM for Indonesia?
Airalo does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Indonesia. All plans that carry the label “Unlimited” in their name are actually limited to 3GB of high‑speed data per day, after which the speed is throttled to 1000kbps. Travelers who need larger data allowances can choose from fixed‑data plans such as Asialink ‑ 100 GB for 180 days at $185.00 USD or Indotel ‑ 50 GB for 30 days at $42.00 USD. These plans offer high‑speed data without daily caps and can be more cost‑effective for heavy data users.
Does Airalo offer Indonesia eSIM with phone number and SMS?
Airalo does not provide Indonesia eSIM plans that include a local phone number or SMS capability. All of Airalo’s Indonesia data‑only eSIM offerings give you speed and connectivity but do not allow inbound or outbound voice calls or SMS messages. Travelers who need voice or text messaging can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage over the data connection, which work without a local phone number.
How many data plans does Airalo offer for Indonesia?
Airalo offers 18 single‑country data plans that cover Indonesia only and 20 multi‑country packages that include Indonesia. The plans range from about $4.50 to $185, with data caps between 1 GB and 100 GB and validity periods from 3 to 365 days. Some of the plans are fixed‑data packages while a small portion feature daily data caps.
