Should I activate my WestESIM prior to my flight or upon arrival at Paris CDG?

Updated April 22, 2026

We strongly advise activating your WestESIM before you depart for France. Installing the eSIM, which involves scanning a QR code, is best done in an environment with stable Wi-Fi, such as your home or office. While Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG) Airport offers Wi-Fi, it can be inconsistent or require registration. By installing beforehand, your WestESIM will instantly connect to a premium local network like Orange or SFR the moment you land, ensuring immediate and seamless internet access for navigation, communication, and work.
