You can conveniently install your Ecuador Abroad eSIM on your device before you even depart. The validity of your plan, however, only begins once you land in the first covered country, such as Ecuador or the Dominican Republic, or when your cruise ship docks at a port, and your device connects to a local network. So, you can install it now and have it ready for immediate use upon arrival.
