Hopefully you're aware of the very expensive costs as it's a Rest Of The World destination. The following charges will apply:

 

£2,160 per GB 

£2.16 per minute Calls to local or UK mobile and landline numbers

£1.80 per minute to receive calls

£0.50 per text message to UK numbers and mobiles

£0.58 per picture message(MMS).

Not using Sky Mobile... Ensure airplane mode is on and use local WiFi.

 

It's a rest of world location:

£2,160 per GB of data (Yes, that's two thousand)

£2.16 per minute to call UK

£1.80 per minute to receive calls

50p per text

 

Calls to local numbers are charged at International rates.

There isn't one with a Sky SIM: you need to look at local provision (Digicel or Flow) or specialist providers of travel eSIMS.

 

Numerous online sources give advice about mobile provision when travelling in locations not included in a home country plan
