Install one at home before you fly and you are online when the wheels touch down, with no queue at a SIM counter.
Mobile networks in Italy
Italy has four mobile networks: TIM, Vodafone, WindTre and Iliad. A travel eSIM connects to one of them as a roaming partner, which is why data roaming must be on for the eSIM line. All four cover the cities and the main transport routes; differences show up in the countryside, the mountains and on the islands. The partner network can differ from plan to plan, so check the plan details, or ask us at support@esimlounge.com before you buy.
