Airalo is working. PickMe needs data, not a local number. One driver already asked for a Dialog number. Sunday 30 Aug 01:00 queue at the desk looks like forty minutes. Two phones.

Skip the desk if the eSIM is actually live and you can receive OTP. Tuk drivers can take a WhatsApp or a written pin. I will not invent an arrivals rule that you must buy Dialog. If you want a local number for a hire van, Monday city shop is calmer. Screenshot the eSIM balance before you leave the hall.

eSIM was enough. Drivers took the pin. Fine.

We bought one local SIM Monday. Night queue was a choice, not a need.

Kids: skip the queue. Pride collects a second number and then cannot find the OTP.
