Your trip length and how much you use your phone decide the plan, so here is where each kind of trip lands. - **A three-day city break in Tórshavn:** Standard use comes to about 2.1 GB, so 1 GB a day for 3 days covers messages, maps and plenty of harbour photos. - **A fortnight touring the islands:** Standard use over 14 days is about 9.8 GB, so 10 GB for 30 days gives you room to roam between Klaksvík, Vestmanna and Saksun. - **A week-long business trip:** With streaming and hotspot use, 2 GB a day for 7 days covers long working days. - **A month-long stay:** Standard use over 30 days is about 21 GB, so 20 GB for 30 days leaves plenty of room for day trips out to Gjógv. Most plans can be [topped up](/help/top-up-esim), and the longest plan runs for 30 days. ## Will my eSIM have signal in the Faroe Islands? Your eSIM joins Faroese Telecom's 5G network. Towns, villages and main roads are well covered, but signal can drop on remote hikes, so save your maps before you set off. Your phone picks up the network by itself, so there's no switching or settings to fiddle with. Your data reaches the internet through Israel, a normal setup for travel eSIMs; see our [IP address help page](/help/ip-address-another-country) for more. On daily plans, speeds drop to 512 Kbps once you've used the day's allowance. ## Using your phone in the Faroe Islands: data tips **Land at Vágar:** Install your eSIM at home on Wi-Fi before you fly. When you land at Vágar (FAE), switch it on and make sure [data roaming](/help/turn-on-data-roaming) is turned on for the eSIM line. **Your network:** Faroese Telecom is the network your eSIM uses here, and it offers 5G. Save your maps before you set off from Tórshavn, Klaksvík or Vestmanna, so your route is ready when you head out. **Staying in touch:** Messenger is the messaging app to use here. Your home number stays on for calls and texts, and if you use WhatsApp, [here is how to keep it working](/help/keep-whatsapp-and-home-number). **Data that lasts:** Most plans can be topped up, so you can add more during your trip if you need it. The longest plan runs for 30 days, so a long stay is easy to plan for. After your daily allowance, speeds drop to 512 Kbps. ## Questions ### How much is an eSIM for the Faroe Islands?
