The decision

One pack, or one plan per country?

This is the only question the page really has to answer. The arithmetic is not close, and it does not go the way most people assume.

Buy locally $0.22 per GB, cheapest in the region

The best single-country price in the region, in Reunion. Even the cheapest regional pack costs several times this per gigabyte.

  • One or two countries on the trip
  • Longer stays where the allowance gets used
  • Heavy data use, where the gap compounds
versus
Take a regional pack $1.72 per GB, best pack here

The cheapest regional plan we found, from eSIM Dog. It buys one install and one balance across every market below.

  • Three or more countries in one trip
  • Short stops where a local plan expires unused
  • You value not thinking about it at every border

Put plainly: the cheapest regional pack costs $1.72 against $0.22 per gigabyte, and 7 of the 10 packs we list beat the regional median of $4.40. You are buying convenience, not value.

One pack for the whole trip

Regional plans, cheapest per gigabyte first

Sorted by what a gigabyte actually costs rather than by headline price, and each one measured against the regional median of $4.40. What that comparison shows is the useful part.

7/10

7 of the 10 regional packs here beat the local median per gigabyte. Check the coverage before assuming that settles it: a pack is only cheaper overall if the trip actually visits enough of the markets it covers.

How we rank this region

The same formula every page on this site uses, published in full and applied here without exception.

One plan, counted once

A pack covering thirty markets holds thirty rows in our index. The plan count above counts it once, because that is the honest answer to "how many plans can I buy here".

Separate

Unlimited and pay-per-GB plans are excluded from every median and percentile. A throttling threshold is not an allowance, and mixing the two makes a gigabyte look cheaper than it is.

Compare like with like

A regional pack is measured against the median of the markets it covers, not against its own headline price. That is the only comparison that answers whether the pack is worth buying.

Refresh

Prices are re-read continuously and this region was last recomputed on 27 August 2026. A sync whose numbers move implausibly is rejected rather than published.
