Why Airalo eSIMs are a game-changer for travellers

Airalo is the world’s first eSIM store, offering affordable mobile data packages for more than 200 countries and regions. Instead of hunting for a physical SIM card at an airport kiosk or gambling on patchy hotel Wi-Fi, you can install an eSIM straight to your phone before you’ve even left home. Tap, download, activate… and you’re online.

Here’s why eSIMs are perfect for BMC members:

1. No faff or fiddly plastic
Forget swapping fiddly SIM cards in an airport lounge. An eSIM is completely digital, so you can activate it with a couple of clicks.

2. Stay connected wherever you roam
From Spanish sport crags to remote Scottish islands, you can choose a plan tailored to your trip. Airalo offers local, regional, and global data options, so you’re covered whether you’re on a weekend city break or an expedition that crosses borders.

3. Better value for money
Airalo’s data plans are competitively priced and often far cheaper than international roaming charges from your home network. With the BMC’s member discount, you’re saving even more.

4. Keep your home number active
Because the eSIM acts as a second data connection, you can keep your UK SIM in place. That means you don’t lose access to texts or calls routed to your usual number.

5. Perfect for safety and planning
Navigation apps, weather updates, avalanche forecasts, route topos, and emergency communication are all in your pocket. No more standing outside a café desperately trying to log on to the Wi-Fi to download a guidebook page.

Ideal for climbers, walkers, and adventure travellers

BMC members love to wander. Whether you’re chasing limestone tufas in Kalymnos, bagging Alpine 4000ers, or exploring a new trekking route in the Andes, you need reliable data on the go. Airalo lets you stay in touch with partners, guides, accommodation, and rescue information without the usual roaming costs or hassle.
