Airalo Black Friday 2026: 25% Off Every eSIM With My Code BFDREW25
The Airalo Black Friday deal for 2026 is 25% off every Airalo eSIM with my exclusive code BFDREW25. It runs 13–30 November 2026, for new and existing customers.
Airalo set this code up for Points Brotherhood readers. Airalo’s public Black Friday code only covers its Unlimited plans. BFDREW25 covers everything: Unlimited, fixed-data, regional and global plans. It also beats my usual codes, so for these 18 days it’s the only code you need.
| Code | BFDREW25 |
| Discount | 25% off all plans |
| Who can use it | New and existing Airalo customers |
| Dates | 13–30 November 2026 |
Which code should you use?
From 13 to 30 November, BFDREW25 is the best code for everything.
| Code | Discount | Works on |
|---|---|---|
| BFDREW25 (13–30 Nov) | 25% | Every plan, new and existing customers |
| BLACK25 (Airalo’s public code) | 25% | Unlimited plans only |
| DREWDEALNEW | 15% | Your first Airalo eSIM (all year) |
| DREWDEAL | 10% | Existing customers (all year) |
Airalo takes one code per order, so the codes don’t stack. After 30 November, my usual codes are back to being the best deal.
Unlimited or fixed data: which should you buy?
- Fixed-data plans give you a set amount of data, like 10GB for 7 days. When it runs out, you top up.
- Unlimited plans are sold by the day: 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days. You get a daily allowance at full speed, then it slows down until the next day. You never run out.
BFDREW25 takes 25% off both, so the question is which plan suits your trip. Fixed plans are cheaper if you use your phone lightly. Unlimited makes sense if you use a lot of data, hotspot another device, or just don’t want to think about it.

What the numbers say
- Europe: go Unlimited. It costs under US$2 more than the closest fixed plan, and you never run out. Europe’s Unlimited plan also gives 5GB a day at full speed, more than most.
- Asia, one week: Unlimited costs about the same as 20GB. If you’d buy the bigger plan anyway (my usual advice), take Unlimited.
- Asia, two weeks or more: fixed is cheaper unless you average more than about 2GB a day. For a month in Vietnam, 50GB is US$15 less than Unlimited.
When to choose Unlimited, and when not to
- are going to Europe
- have a one-week trip anywhere and would buy 20GB
- hotspot a laptop or a partner’s phone
- make video calls, upload photos or stream
- hate topping up mid-trip
- mostly use maps, messages and email
- are on hotel wifi most evenings
- are in Asia for two weeks or more and use under 2GB a day
The fine print on “unlimited”
- Most Airalo Unlimited plans give you 3GB a day at full speed, then slow to about 1Mbps until the next day. Airalo’s Europe plan (Eurolink) gives 5GB a day.
- 1Mbps is fine for maps, WhatsApp and email. It’s not enough for video.
- Hotspotting is allowed, but it counts towards your daily allowance.
- Not every country has an Unlimited plan. Check yours in the Airalo app before you buy.
My take
My standing advice on eSIMs is to buy a bigger plan than you think you need. With 25% off everything, Black Friday is the cheapest time of the year to do it.
If you’ve got a trip in the next year, buy the eSIM now. For Europe, take Unlimited. For Asia, take Unlimited for a short trip or if you use a lot of data, otherwise a big fixed plan. For more on Vietnam, see my Vietnam eSIM guide, tested on the Mekong.

FAQ
What is the Airalo Black Friday code for 2026?
BFDREW25 gives 25% off every Airalo eSIM from 13 to 30 November 2026. It works for new and existing customers, including in Australia. Airalo’s public code, BLACK25, only covers Unlimited plans.
Does BFDREW25 work on fixed-data plans?
Yes. It works on every plan: Unlimited, fixed-data, regional and global.
Is Airalo Unlimited really unlimited?
Not quite. Most plans give 3GB a day at full speed (5GB on the Europe plan), then slow to about 1Mbps until the next day. You never run out, but heavy use gets slow.
Can I buy now and use it on a trip next year?
Usually, yes. For most Airalo plans, the days only start counting when the eSIM connects to a network at your destination. But some plans must be used within a set time after purchase, so check the package details in the app before buying for a trip months away.
Can I combine BFDREW25 with another Airalo code?
No. Airalo takes one code per order.
