Should I install my eSIM for Turkey before or after landing?

Question

I'm traveling to Turkey soon and I'm not sure if I should install my GotoeSIM before departing or wait until after I land. Are there any benefits to doing it one way or the other? What have others experienced?

It's generally recommended to install your eSIM before you depart. This way, it's ready to activate as soon as you land in Turkey, ensuring you have immediate access to mobile data.

I installed my eSIM before flying, and it worked seamlessly right when I landed. Saved me from having to find Wi-Fi at the airport!

I prefer setting up my eSIM before I leave because it gives me peace of mind knowing it's ready to go. Plus, you can troubleshoot any issues while still at home.

Sara (GotoeSIM) · Answer

Installing the eSIM before traveling allows you to resolve any potential issues in advance. Once you arrive, it should connect automatically to a local network.

I waited until I landed once, and it was a hassle trying to set it up without proper connectivity. Installing beforehand is a smoother experience.

Nina K. · Answer

I always set it up before my trip. The activation is automatic, so as soon as you touch down, you're connected. No need to worry about finding a Wi-Fi connection to complete the installation.

If you install before you leave, you also get to test whether it's working with your device, which is a big plus. I had no issues doing it this way.

I did mine after landing once due to a last-minute trip and faced no issues, but it was more stressful. It's definitely easier to sort it out beforehand.
