Not sure whether to set up the China eSIM at home or wait until I get there.
Should I install my China eSIM before or after I fly?

Install it at home on Wi-Fi before you fly to China. Installation needs internet, and airport/arrival Wi-Fi can be unreliable. Once installed, it stays dormant and activates automatically when you reach China.
