Mobile internet in the USA
With Airport Telecom’s prepaid sim cards America, you can be reached throughout the USA on one phone number. You can choose from different data and call bundles. These bundles are great for internet use in the USA and give you access to Email, Whatsapp, navigation and other internet applications via a fast 4G/5G connection.
Bundles for data and calls while traveling in the USA
The sim cards for the USA come with a 12GB and an Unlimited data bundle:
12GB sim card USA €36
Bundle valid for 30 days. With the 12GB simcard you can be reached all over the USA on one phone number. Moreover, you have 12GB of data. So this sim card is very suitable for internet use. Please note that while you can receive incoming phone calls with this card, you cannot make normal outgoing phone calls with it. All calls made via the Internet such as Whatsapp, Skype, Facetime, etc. are of course possible. After all, you are then using the 12GB of data on the SIM card. The phone number on which you can be reached in the USA will be sent to you by SMS when you activate the SIM card. It is a British (+44) number. We have been keeping this sim card in the range for years due to its favorable data bundle.
Unlimited sim card USA €69
Bundle valid for 30 days. With this sim you can be reached throughout the United States on one American phone number (+1). The Unlimited sim card offers unlimited data and unlimited calling throughout the United States. Ideal when you want to be assured of sufficient data and when you want to call hotels and restaurants in the USA. This sim card can be topped up.
The sim cards for the USA have excellent nationwide coverage via AT&T and T-Mobile’s 4G and 5G networks. No user registration is required in the United States. Upon arrival, insert the sim card into your cell phone and the Internet begins to work. The sim cards USA do not work in a MIFI router or as a hotspot. The bundles are valid for 30 days.
Whatsapp with sim card USA
With the sim cards USA, you can continue to use WhatsApp as you are used to. The same goes for all other apps. Once WhatsApp realizes that there is a different sim card with a new number in your phone, Whatsapp may automatically ask whether you want to use the new number or the old number. If you then choose the old number, nothing at all will change on Whatsapp. You will then just keep your existing WhatsApp identity with all contacts, groups and chats.
Network coverage in the USA
The sim cards USA use the AT&T and the T-Mobile network in the United States. About 99% of the American population are reached by these networks, so mobile data and voice coverage in the USA is excellent. Emailing from Manhattan and Disney World or keeping up with Instagram from Santa Monica Beach is always possible. Still, there are uninhabited or remote areas where the phone won’t work. Consider the beautiful national parks in the USA such as Yellowstone, Yosemite and the Everglades. And sending a Whatsapp message from the billion-year-old Grand Canyon or the remote wilderness with bears in Alaska probably won’t work. As indicated, these are exceptions because from New York to Miami, from Chicago to Los Angeles, in all the big and small places one can make calls and use the Internet by cell phone worry-free.

Great compliments
Big compliments to Airport Telecom ! For my vacation to the Philippines, I received an Unlimited Sim card that really worked perfectly everywhere. The Philippines are very vast but I had coverage everywhere. A travel companion only had problems with a locally purchased Sim card so I was happy with my Sim from Airport Telecom ! I recommend this company to everyone for a carefree vacation. Anko

What an excellent way
Used a sim from Airport Telecom for our trip to Tanzania. What a great way to travel comfortably and still remain reachable. The excellent explanations made for a relaxing trip and the accessibility was top notch. Many thanks Robert and Marion.

Top service
Top service. Purchased a sim card with 12 gb for 9 days in California. After some questions both via email and over the phone I made the choice to purchase it from Airport Telecom. Clear instructions and fast home delivery! I activated the card on advice at home, changed SIM cards on the plane and once we landed in Los Angeles we immediately had a stable connection to the network.
