International visitors arriving at Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi will now receive a free SIM card with 10GB of data, valid for 24 hours.

The initiative, a collaboration between Abu Dhabi Airports and telecom provider e&, allows travellers to instantly access maps, ride-hailing apps, payments services, messaging, and the Abu Dhabi Pass.

The airport, one of the world’s fastest-growing hubs, handled 23.9 million passengers as of September 2025.

“We want every passenger to feel welcomed from the moment they land,” said Abu Dhabi Airports CEO Elena Sorlini.
