An eSIM for Oceania, from the Tasman to the Pacific
Our Oceania eSIM is a prepaid data plan that covers 6 countries: Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga, Vanuatu and Papua New Guinea. It lives on your phone, so a trip that starts in Melbourne, crosses to Auckland and ends on a beach in Fiji runs on one plan.
It suits visitors doing Australia and New Zealand in one go, Australians and New Zealanders heading off on a Pacific island holiday, and anyone flying between regional hubs for work. Plans start with short stopover packs and run to a month, with a separate Australia and New Zealand plan for longer stays.
You pay once, upfront, so your travel data spend stays fixed and you avoid daily roaming fees from your home carrier. Your home SIM keeps working for calls and texts, and your EscapeSIM dashboard shows how much data is left.
Oceania eSIM Coverage Across 6 Countries
The Oceania eSIM connects to major local networks in each of the six countries. Your phone automatically connects to available supported partner networks when you land, so there's no SIM to swap between flights.
Cities are well covered. Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland give dependable data for maps, transport apps and messaging. Distance is the challenge here: the Outback has long stretches with no signal between towns, and in Fiordland National Park the road to Milford Sound is mostly out of range, so download maps and tickets before you set off.
On the Pacific islands, signal is strongest in the main towns and resort areas, and thins out or disappears on smaller outer islands. Treat resort Wi-Fi as a backup there, and expect gaps on boat transfers between islands.
Use the same plan across all six countries, with no airport SIM stop on arrival.
Running low halfway through a road trip? Add data to the same eSIM where your plan supports top-ups.
Get a warning before you run out, so you can top up while you still have signal in town, before heading somewhere remote.
Your regular SIM stays on for calls, texts and bank codes, while the Oceania eSIM handles your travel data.

Why Travellers Choose Our Oceania eSIM
Australia and New Zealand on One Plan
Plenty of trips to this part of the world take in both sides of the Tasman. One eSIM covers the flight from Sydney to Auckland and everything either side.
For longer stays such as working holidays, the Australia and New Zealand plan runs from 14 days up to 60 days, with sizes from 1 GB to 60 GB.
If you're also heading to the Pacific islands, the full regional plan is the one to pick, since the two-country plan doesn't include them.
Built for Island Hopping
Fiji, Vanuatu and Tonga are often added on to an Australia or New Zealand trip. A regional eSIM saves you hunting for a SIM shop after every flight.
Coverage is good in main towns and resort areas, but smaller outer islands can have little or no signal. Save offline maps, booking details and ferry times before you leave the main island.
Keep data roaming switched on for the eSIM so it can connect each time you land in a new country.
Sizes for Stopovers and Longer Trips
Regional plans run from 1 GB up to 50 GB, with 7 to 30 days of validity. A two-night stopover in Fiji and a month-long road trip need very different plans.
Stopover packs in the smallest sizes last 7 days, while short-trip packs stretch to 15 days.
For a month away, 30-day plans come in sizes like 3 GB, 5 GB and 10 GB, with more available if you stream or video call.
A Fixed Cost Instead of Home Roaming
Australian and New Zealand carriers often charge a daily fee to roam in the Pacific. A prepaid Oceania eSIM swaps that for one upfront cost for your data.
Turn off data roaming on your home SIM and let the eSIM carry your data, while your usual number still receives calls and texts.
Because the plan is prepaid, the data side of your holiday costs what you paid for it, which makes a family trip easier to budget.

Where Data Helps on an Oceania Trip
A few moments where mobile data makes the day easier.
Getting Around Sydney
Follow transit maps to the Sydney Opera House, check ferry times and book a table without hunting for Wi-Fi.
Riding the TranzAlpine
Check your booking and connections for the TranzAlpine train from Christchurch to Greymouth, subject to supported network availability along the line.
A Day on the Reef
Confirm pickup times and share photos after a trip out to the Great Barrier Reef, once you're back in range of shore.
One eSIM Across Oceania
Install once and use the same eSIM in all six countries. Each time you land, your phone picks up an available partner network, and your dashboard shows what's left.
Who Our Oceania eSIM Suits
Spend a week around Melbourne and the Blue Mountains, then fly to Auckland and carry on with the same plan.
Share photos from Fiji, Vanuatu or Tonga and keep messaging family, with offline maps ready for quieter islands.
Book stops along the way on a drive through the Atherton Tablelands, and top up when you're back in range.
Stay online for job hunting and flat searches across Australia and New Zealand on a plan that lasts up to 60 days.
Oceania eSIM Questions
It's a prepaid, data-only plan installed on your phone that works in 6 countries, from the two Tasman neighbours out to the Pacific islands. You install it before you fly and it connects to major local networks when you land, so one plan covers a multi-country Pacific trip.
It covers Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Vanuatu, Tonga and Papua New Guinea. In each one, your phone automatically connects to available supported partner networks. If your trip is only Australia and New Zealand, the two-country plan with up to 60 days of validity may suit you better.
Maps, messaging, browsing and some social media come to roughly 0.5 GB a day, so a week of light use fits in a 3 GB or 5 GB plan. Video streaming and video calls use about 1 GB per hour, and sharing your connection uses more again, so choose a bigger plan for that. Track your usage in the EscapeSIM dashboard.
No. These are data-only plans without a local phone number. Your home SIM stays active, so you keep your usual number for calls and texts. To call hotels, tour operators or family, use internet calling in apps like WhatsApp over your eSIM data.
Only where a local network reaches. Main towns and resort areas on the Pacific islands are covered, but small outer islands can have no signal. In Australia, long Outback drives and parts of Fiordland in New Zealand have large gaps. Download offline maps before heading out.
For most trips, yes. Australian carriers usually charge a daily roaming fee, while a prepaid Oceania eSIM is one upfront cost for your travel data. Install it at home, switch your data to the eSIM when you land, and keep your Australian number active for calls and texts.
Yes. Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. Recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models support eSIM. If you bought your phone on a plan, check with your carrier that it is unlocked before you travel.
The right one depends on your route and how long you're away. For Australia and New Zealand only, the two-country plan covers longer stays. If the Pacific islands are on the itinerary, pick the full regional plan in a size that fits your usage. Every plan is prepaid, with a usage dashboard and 24/7 support.
