Set up before you fly
Buy in the Airalo app and install your QR code at home. Your plan activates automatically when you first connect to a local tower in Egypt.
Keep your existing number
Airalo runs as a second line alongside your home SIM. Your usual number stays active for calls and texts — Airalo handles data only.
Real-time data usage
Track exactly how much data you've used at any time in the Airalo app, so you never get caught short before your next refill.
Travel beyond Egypt
If your Egypt trip is part of a wider journey, Airalo covers many other destinations from the same app — manage everything in one place.
Flexible up to 7 days
Airalo Egypt plans run up to 7 days from first use. Buy in advance so you're ready the moment you land.
Which Airalo plan should you pick?
For a short city break of 3–6 days, the cheapest plan at $14.50will cover Maps, WhatsApp and casual browsing. If you’re spending one to two weeks travelling around Egypt, step up to a mid-tier plan — usually the strongest value on a per-GB basis in Airalo’s Egypt lineup.
If you plan to work remotely, stream video daily, or use your phone as a hotspot, lean towards a larger bundle. The unlimited plans cost a premium but make sense for heavy users who don’t want to track usage.
One thing to note: Airalo Egyptplans are data-only. You won’t get a local number, but your existing SIM handles calls and texts as normal — messages, WhatsApp and FaceTime all work over data.
