Mobile coverage Malaysia
Malaysia is spread over two parts with associated islands where our SIM cards offer good coverage. Especially in Malacca, where you will find most of the highlights, coverage is strong. Here lies the capital Kuala Lumpur with its famous Petronas Twin Towers, with Penang and its delicious street food, and the enchanting Cameron Highlands, where there is also high-speed connectivity. Around the beautiful Taman Negara National Park there are fewer transmission towers so the connection here is weaker. Enjoy the tropical beaches on the Perhentain Islands, or bivouac in a luxury resort in the Langkawi archipelago, here too you have good Internet with the SIM cards. Traveling east, you also won’t have to worry about connection when you visit Kinabalu National Park, home to the world’s largest biodiversity and the magnificent Mount Kinabalu. If you go further inland in Borneo, then coverage may decrease again in the remote areas.

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.
