SIM cards at Kos Island International Airport

Picking up a local SIM card on arrival is one of the most practical things you can do when landing at Kos Island International Airport. Having mobile data immediately available means you can navigate ground transport, contact your accommodation, and avoid roaming charges from the moment you clear arrivals.

At Kos Island International Airport, SIM cards are available from retailers in the arrivals hall. For travellers arriving from outside the destination region, check whether your existing mobile network offers a travel add-on before departure because this can be cheaper than buying a local SIM for short trips.

If you are travelling onward to multiple countries, compare roaming terms before purchase. Some local plans include regional roaming while others do not. Buying the wrong plan can create unexpected costs during onward connections.
