Light user
Maps + messagingIf you only check maps and send messages in Anguilla, budget 4GB for 7 days. Airalo offers the 5GB plan at $34.24 on FLOW. Airalo provides the best app experience for tracking your light data budget in real time. Per-GB cost is higher than Nomad.
Moderate user
Social + browsingModerate travelers in Anguilla (social media, navigation, browsing) use 11GB over 7 days at 1.5GB/day. Airalo's 20GB plan at $137.65 ($6.88/GB) covers the trip on FLOW's 4G LTE network. This is the most common traveler profile and the plan size we recommend to first-time visitors. Airalo wins this tier for Anguilla on plan variety and carrier coverage. The trade-off: no unlimited option if your usage spikes beyond 11GB.
Heavy user
Streaming + callsIf you stream video, run hotspot, or join 2+ hours of video calls daily in Anguilla, budget 21GB over 7 days. Holafly's unlimited data at $16.44/day covers that without tracking. Limitation: tethering capped at 1GB/day and speeds reduce to 256Kbps-1Mbps after the fair-use threshold. Download large files and entertainment over WiFi.
