Buying a SIM card at Santiago Airport?
Ysa59 · 2025-09-12
Hi, we're heading to Chile soon and need physical SIM cards (not eSIMs). Is it possible to buy them at Santiago Airport? We’ll have a few hours layover before our flight to Easter Island but not enough time to go downtown. Thanks for your tips!

Hello,
I’m not sure about the answer, but if you find a shop like a "newsstand," you can ask. Sorry, I was at the airport yesterday but didn’t see any....

Hi,
You shouldn’t normally have any trouble finding a SIM card at Santiago Airport.
Of all the telecom companies in Chile, ENTEL is the one that personally seems to have the best mobile coverage to me.
Have a great trip,
