8 Benefits of Getting a Portable Wi-Fi Device, Travel SIM Card, or eSIM Before Your Trip

Posted on

In this digital age, there’s one travel essential that people should always, always consider getting before a trip: Connectivity products. 

Although it’s easy to assume that SIM card and Wi-Fi rental shops are waiting on you at the airport of your destination, availing of either before kickstarting your journey is still going to take some of your precious time. What if you’re in a hurry? What if you can’t afford to miss a second of traveling to the city center to hop on to your next activity? These are some realistic scenarios that make renting a pocket Wi-Fi or purchasing a SIM Card (or eSIM!) before your trip a totally wise decision. 

Here, we list down some of the benefits you get from pre-booking your connectivity essentials for travel:

 

Time To Weigh Your Options

When it comes to choosing the right connectivity product for your trip, it’s always good to have a bit of extra time to compare services—something that doesn’t really come by when you’re already in your destination and eager to start your adventure. Make this part of your pre-trip planning process. Opting to rent or purchase your Wi-Fi device or SIM card in advance allows you to thoroughly compare the various products and services you can get, instead of hastily settling for whatever’s available upon your arrival, without fully understanding important factors, like device capabilities, data limits, rental costs, and even customer reviews. 

 

No Language Barriers

Language barrier is a hurdle that travelers know oh too well, and it can be a struggle communicating with service providers once you’re in your country of destination. When you avail of your connectivity device well in advance, you can skip this grueling part, since you will be in touch with a local travel internet provider like Big Sky in the first place!

 

Door-to-door Delivery

If you are renting a Wi-Fi device before your trip, it will be delivered based on your preferred arrangement—be it to your home or office address. This convenience means you’ll arrive at your destination with everything already set up for you and ready to go!

Get To Know The Device Features

Once you’ve received your Wi-Fi device, you have the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the device’s features. Flip through the user manual, test out the device if it switches on and off without a hitch, and try charging it. By getting a good understanding of how your chosen device works will enable you to maximize its capabilities during your trip!

 

Easier Troubleshooting

When testing the device’s features, you might have questions or come across technical issues that need to be addressed promptly. That would be the best time to reach out to the customer service team of your local rental company. They will either guide you through the troubleshooting process. Resolving all potential connectivity issues prior to your departure is key to a hassle-free trip.

Guaranteed Availability

This is one of the advantages of renting your travel Wi-Fi device. Since you already have your pocket Wi-Fi on-hand, you wouldn’t have to worry whether or not rental shops at the airport or city can accommodate you. If you’re traveling during peak season and you wait until the last minute, you might find that local rental outlets are all fully booked or that the devices you need are unavailable.

Immediate Connectivity

Enjoy immediate and seamless connectivity as soon as the plane lands at your destination! You need not worry about pricey roaming fees or sharing the airport’s Wi-Fi—which can be unsecured, by the way—with countless other travelers. You can instantly call your loved ones back home and also post updates online in real-time!

 

Peace of Mind

Ultimately, having your connectivity devices in order before your trip gives you invaluable peace of mind, knowing that you have a trustworthy internet connection for the entire length of your stay.
