Which mobile networks does Aland Islands have?
Alcom has the strongest coverage on Fasta Aland and the main tourist areas. Signal thins out across the outer archipelago of about 6,500 islands and skerries.
- Alcom: Alcom is the local Aland operator, built on the old Mariehamns Telefon and Alands Telefon companies, and sells mobile, prepaid and fibre services with 5G on its top plans.
- Telia: Telia is the only mainland Finnish operator with its own network on the islands. Elisa and DNA customers roam onto local networks instead.

Light use is about 500 MB a day. That covers maps, messages, and some browsing. Normal use with photos, social apps, and short videos runs 1 to 1.5 GB a day. Streaming and hotspot use can eat 2 to 3 GB a day. Here is what each size costs in Aland Islands right now:
eSIM or a local SIM at the airport in Aland Islands?
An eSIM is ready before you land. No queue, no shop, no handing over your passport at a counter. Data for Aland Islands starts at $27.30 on this page, which is hard for airport kiosks to beat. A local SIM still makes sense if you need a local phone number or plan to stay for months. For a normal trip, the eSIM wins on price and effort.
Setting up your Aland Islands eSIM
Buy your planYou get a QR code by email within minutes of paying.
Install before you flyScan the QR code on wifi at home. Airport and hotel wifi can be weak.
Turn it on when you landEnable the eSIM and turn on data roaming for it, then give it a minute to find the network.
Check the validity clockSome plans start counting at purchase, not at first use. Check before you buy.
Good to know before you land in Aland Islands
Aland is part of Finland and the EU, so EU roam like home applies as normal. One quirk surprises Finns themselves: Elisa and DNA have no masts on the islands, so their phones roam onto Alcom or Telia and roaming must be switched on.
Most visitors arrive by sea. Viking Line and Tallink Silja sail from Turku, Helsinki and Stockholm to Mariehamn or Langnas, and Eckerolinjen runs from Grisslehamn in Sweden. Mariehamn Airport has daily flights from Helsinki, Turku and Stockholm.
Any eSIM or plan that covers Finland or the EU works on Aland. Turn roaming on before you board the ferry, even if you are coming from mainland Finland.
