Hi Fred, I got a pocket Wi-Fi before leaving with Japan Experience for 65 € unlimited access. It works really well.

Same here, but through a different provider. A must-have! However, it was made available at the hotel in Tokyo, so between the airport and the hotel, only free Wi-Fi if available.

Hey Fred,

It’s possible at the airport, but you’ll have fewer options. The best thing is still to compare/buy beforehand and activate once you’re there. Price isn’t the only thing to consider—some eSIMs work better than others outside the cities.

Here’s a free comparison tool.
