this time through Klook When purchasing LTE & 5G network cards from Globe, the largest telecommunications service provider in the Philippines, you can book online and pick up the card directly at major airports in the Philippines, which is quite convenient. This is a 7-day 10 GB plan purchased and picked up at Mactan-Cebu International Airport.
The picture below was taken after claiming the luggage, waiting for the final luggage inspection. The white signboard "DUTY FREE" in front of you is the duty-free shop, and after checking, turn right and it is the exit.

The arrival terminal of Mactan Cebu Airport is actually not big. After the customs inspection, there was a duty-free shop and a few hotel counters outside, and then they disappeared. Notice! The place where the Globe network card is collected is not in the airport, but in the open space outside the airport terminal.
When you leave the terminal, you will see an open space. There are two telecommunications companies, Smart Telecom and Globe Telecom. Maybe because everyone books Globe from Klook, the queues at Smart are relatively smaller.
Everyone crowded in front of the counter. The rich man entered the country very quickly this time, but it took almost an hour to register and set up the network card. There was only one staff member at the counter that day, and the staff member would help change the card and set it up properly. The service was very good and reassuring.
A SIM card takes about 5 – 10 minutes to set up, so people who want to catch a boat at the pier must take this into consideration.
Unexpectedly, the cost of purchasing on-site is cheaper than purchasing online. Next time, the rich man will try to buy directly on-site (laughs).
When you get the network card, the Globe SIM card looks like this!
After receiving the SIM card, you need to register and open the card now. During the card opening process, you need to enter the basic purchaser information, length of stay, and hotel address in the Philippines, and complete real-name authentication by taking a passport photo. You can use it if you have a local Internet connection in the Philippines Grab The taxi service is leaving the airport.

rich man experience
The Globe network card I purchased this time is smooth and basic to use in downtown Cebu and Bohol. Grab , Line, FB, Teams, and Google Map can be used without any problem, and hotspot sharing is also possible. But inone day island hoppingThe signal was unstable when we arrived at Balicasag Island, for your reference.
Replenish! There is a small convenience store after exiting the terminal. If you want to change small bills, you can buy some small items. The items are very expensive, a bottle of water costs 60 PHP, and most biscuits cost 100 PHP. Don’t come here if you don’t need it (laughs).
