I occasionally buy travel data, and 3 of probably 8-ish instances had me on the phone with support for at least 20 minutes (and once an hour) to make an esim work. Perhaps the problem is android. But I've never had that experience with a physical sim. :shrug:

I have used the AirAlo app to buy data-only eSIMs for so many international trips. It works well but I have only tried it on iPhones.

Did this yesterday on Android when arriving into Indonesia. While my wife waited in immigration, I used the Smart Gates. I downloaded an eSim via Airalo in just 90 seconds, providing me with enough data to send her a "good luck" message and let her know I'd see her at the hotel if she cleared immigration.

So you left your wife behind at the airport to fend for herself?

Wow.

Turns out women can be independent and don't need 24/7 supervision. If you fly often, there are situations where it's easier to stick together and situation where it's better to go independently. Especially if one of you can take the kids the faster way.

Traveling with kids is a different story, but there’s no mention of that here. Most people wouldn’t jettison a regular friend at passport control, text them “good luck” and head off to the hotel. This guy did it to his wife.

Sure, but not when traveling together to a new country. Where women’s rights are… optional.

Well, if its related to the original poster, then how do you know it is their first time in indonesia? :)) Most likely, :)), it is Bali, and for sure, you can leave wifey alone.
