Antigua and Barbuda has three mobile operators: Flow (Cable & Wireless), Digicel and the state-owned utility APUA, whose mobile service runs under the inet brand. Our travel eSIM runs on Flow's 4G network. On Antigua, where most visitors stay, coverage is generally good in the capital St. John's, around the airport and along the main tourist coasts such as Dickenson Bay, Jolly Harbour and English Harbour. Barbuda is far more sparsely populated and reception there is more limited: it is concentrated around Codrington, the island's only village, while on remote beaches and in the interior the signal can be weak or drop out. Networks: Flow.
For a beach week with maps, messaging and sharing photos, 3 to 5 GB is usually enough, as most hotels and resorts offer WiFi. If you are only ashore for a day on a cruise, the 1 GB plan valid for 7 days will do.
Antigua and Barbuda is outside the EU, so free EU roaming from your home plan does not apply and standard roaming charges can add up quickly. You install the eSIM at home before you leave and it connects as soon as you land at V.C. Bird International Airport.

No. Antigua and Barbuda is an independent Caribbean country and not part of the EU, so roam-like-at-home rules do not apply there. Your home operator bills roaming there separately, often at high rates, while a travel eSIM gives you a fixed data bundle paid in advance.
On Barbuda the eSIM works wherever Flow has a signal, but coverage there is more limited than on Antigua. Reception is mainly found around Codrington, while on remote beaches it can be weak or drop out. Download an offline map before a day trip to Barbuda.
Yes. Install the eSIM at home and switch on mobile data once you are in port, where St. John's generally has 4G on Flow, handy for maps and for trips to Nelson's Dockyard or Shirley Heights. This eSIM only works in Antigua and Barbuda, so if your cruise calls at several islands, look at our Caribbean eSIM, which has Antigua and Barbuda on its country list. At sea, keep mobile data off, because the ship's network runs via satellite, is separate from the eSIM and is expensive.
