eSIM for Addis Ababa Airport (ADD)

Jambo! Africa's busiest connecting hub, and the gateway to Ethiopian highlands and rock churches. Install a JamboSim eSIM before you fly and land at ADD already online.

Getting connected at ADD

Long layovers are the norm here. A JamboSim eSIM means you can message home, rebook flights or check hotel vouchers without wrestling with airport Wi-Fi.

Getting into town

Bole and central Addis are 15 to 30 minutes away. Many transit passengers get a free hotel from Ethiopian Airlines on long layovers.

Good to know

ADD has Terminals 1 and 2, with Terminal 2 handling most international flights. Local time is EAT (UTC+3) and Ethiopia sits at high altitude, so evenings are cool.

Bolt is strong in many African cities
