Yes, 100%. Buying a physical "Tourist SIM" at Athens Airport (from Vodafone, Cosmote, etc.) requires waiting in long queues (especially after a big flight lands) and going through a mandatory passport registration process as required by EU law. Our eSIM is 100% digital, requires no ID registration, and can be installed before you fly, so you are connected the moment you land.
