Brexit created a problem every Europe traveler now knows: your phone’s free EU roaming stops at the English Channel — and home-carrier roaming packages across the continent aren’t free either. A Jet eSIM for Europe & the UK ends the arithmetic: one plan, installed before you fly, covering all 28 countries of the European Union plus the United Kingdom on 5G/4G. Land at Heathrow (LHR), Paris (CDG), Rome (FCO), or Barcelona (BCN) and you’re online before the baggage belt starts — no SIM counters, no registration, no roaming bill waiting at home.
Why Jet eSIM
Three things separate an Europe & UK trip from other destinations when it comes to mobile data:
01
Since Brexit, UK networks reinstate roaming charges for EU travel and vice versa, and most home carriers now sell daily EU/UK roaming passes that quietly cost $5–10 a day. Over a two-week trip that’s real money for mediocre speeds. The Europe & UK plans start at $2.90 total — not per day — with 5G/4G data on leading local networks.
02
Amsterdam with a Paris weekend, Prague via Vienna, Dublin and London in one long weekend — the Schengen area and the Channel Tunnel make borders a formality. One Europe & UK eSIM follows you through all of them with a single allowance, reconnecting to the strongest local network at every crossing.
03
Rail tickets, museum entry, restaurant bookings, translate apps, and contactless-everything: a city trip burns 3–5 GB a week without trying. The Europe & UK plans run from 1 GB to 20 GB fixed plus unlimited options from 3 to 30 days — all with hotspot included for laptop days in cafés.
Pricing
All plans run on the EUconnect network with 5G/4G speeds across all 28 covered countries. Data-only. Hotspot included. Top-up available while abroad.
Handy quirk: Unlimited / 3 days costs the same $7.90 as 3 GB / 30 days — if your trip is a weekend, unlimited is the obvious pick.
Setup
Choose a Europe & UK plan with the data amount and validity that match your trip. You’ll receive an activation QR code by email within minutes of purchase.
Once you land anywhere in the EU or the UK, your Jet eSIM activates automatically. Maps, WhatsApp, and hotspot work from the moment you leave airplane mode — and the plan hops to the strongest local network as you cross borders. Just keep data roaming enabled.
Coverage
The plan runs on the EUconnect network with automatic switching between leading carriers in each country — one eSIM, 28 countries: all 27 European Union member states plus the United Kingdom.
That’s Ireland and Portugal to Finland and Poland — plus the UK for London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Belfast — with no border re-registration anywhere in between.
Staying beyond the EU? This plan does not cover Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, the Balkans, or Türkiye. For the widest European footprint, use the continental Europe eSIM instead — or a country plan like the eSIM for Turkey.

FAQ
Yes. Install before you fly; it activates the moment your phone connects to a local network — you’ll have data before you clear customs.
All 27 EU member states plus the United Kingdom — 28 countries on one plan. Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, the Balkans, and Türkiye are not included; those need the continental Europe plan or a country-specific eSIM.
No — that’s the point of this plan. It covers both sides of the Channel on one allowance, with automatic network switching at every border.
Casual city travel (maps, messaging, bookings, social): 5 GB usually covers two weeks. Constant navigation, hotspotting, and streaming: 10–20 GB, or unlimited.
Yes — the United Kingdom is explicitly included, which is exactly what home-carrier “free EU roaming” no longer guarantees.
Yes, on every plan. Data used via hotspot counts toward your allowance.
Yes. Your usual number stays active for calls and SMS — including bank verification codes — while your data runs on the Jet eSIM.
They’re outside this plan’s footprint. Use the continental Europe eSIM (40+ countries) or the eSIM for Turkey.
