Getting online in Bali
Bali is part of our Indonesia eSIM, and so are Lombok and the Gili Islands. Install it at home and you're online as soon as you land at Ngurah Rai. Here's what connecting looks like, from the airport to the boats.
DPSI Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport
Denpasar
Your eSIM connects
As soon as your phone finds a local network. Set the eSIM as your data line and turn on data roaming for it.
