The short answer
This is the route the other way round from my Egypt and Jordan page: Amman, Petra and Wadi Rum first, then a flight to Cairo and a few days by the Red Sea. I priced the six regional Middle East plans for it, added up what each country costs on its own, and checked which lists name both. For a month I would buy Ringo Light, and for two weeks it is nearly a tie with two country plans.
Unlimited data at full speed in 12 countries, Jordan and Egypt on the list, one eSIM: 2 weeks at $45.99 or 30 days at $62.99, nothing renews. Airalo asks $79 for 15 days and $99 for the month.
10 GB for 30 days at $25 and 20 GB at $45 across 10 countries, on stc, du, Zain, Ooredoo and others. No unlimited plan for the region.
Menalink covers 13 countries including Israel and Palestine. 3 days of unlimited at $24, 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps.
Its 11 countries include both, days not gigabytes. $42.90 for a week; sharing limited to 1 GB a day.
Prices read on 25 October 2026: Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi on their own sites or listings, Ringo Light from its catalogue. All in US dollars unless stated. Treat every number as a snapshot.

The prices, charted
Regional plans, US dollars, 25 October 2026. Ringo Light sells 2 weeks, the others 15 days. Ubigi's 15 days is 30 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Saily and Nomad sell no unlimited plan for the region.
The 30-day regional plan at each brand. Ringo Light is unlimited data at full speed. Ubigi's month is 60 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps.
Holafly sells no buckets; Saily's 10 GB regional price was not listed on the day. Ringo Light sells no bucket either: its 2 weeks is unlimited and lasts 2 weeks, not 30 days.

That is the full Ringo service: one plan that works everywhere, with your own number included.
It is a separate product from Ringo Light and it is still being built, so it is not on sale yet. Join the waitlist to hear when it opens.
What to do in Jordan and Egypt, and what your phone needs for it
Eight places for a trip that starts in Amman and ends in Cairo and on the Red Sea, from the Citadel, Petra and Wadi Rum to the pyramids and old Cairo, with the one thing your data does for you at each. Jordan and Egypt are both on Ringo Light's list.
One plan for both countries: Ringo Light
A trip with a flight in the middle suits one regional eSIM. You install it at home, it works in Amman and on the King's Highway to Petra, and it is still working when the plane lands in Cairo. There is no second purchase on the way.
Ringo Light's Middle East plan costs $45.99 for 2 weeks and $62.99 for 30 days, both unlimited at full speed. On the same day Airalo asked $79 for 15 days and $99 for the month, Holafly $84.50 and $161.50, and Ubigi $88 and $149 for a fixed amount of data, then 2 Mbps.
Jordan's 2 weeks is $26.99 and Egypt's $18.99 on their own pages, $45.98 together, a cent less than the $45.99 for the Middle East plan that covers both. For a month it is $49.99 and $40.99, $90.98 together, against $62.99.
For two weeks that is a tie in practice, and I would take the regional plan for the single install. For a month it is $27.99 cheaper. A week in Jordan alone is different: Ringo Light sells no 7-day plan, so I would buy Airalo at $41 or Holafly at $42.90.
Which plans cover both countries
Ringo Light covers Jordan and Egypt, among 12 countries. Holafly's 11 name both.
Airalo's Menalink and Nomad's MENA plan list Egypt. I could not confirm Jordan by name on either list on the day, though my Middle East page routes Amman through both. Ubigi's Best Middle East plan leaves out Egypt, so it does not suit the Cairo half. Saily lists 19 countries, but I could not read the names.
If you want a data bucket: Nomad or Airalo
- Nomad, $25 for 10 GB. The cheapest 10 GB and 20 GB at $45, both for 30 days. Egypt is on its list; I would check Jordan before I paid.
- Airalo, $30 for 10 GB. Menalink 10 GB for 30 days; 20 GB for $47.50, buckets from $6.50 for 1 GB. Same check for Jordan.
- Ubigi, $39 for 10 GB. Nine countries and no Egypt, so I would skip it for this route.
- Saily, buckets only. Its 10 GB and 20 GB regional prices were not listed on the day, so I cannot compare them.
- ✓Ringo Light, no buckets. The 2 weeks is unlimited for $45.99 and the 30 days unlimited for $62.99. A fixed 10 GB costs less at Nomad and Airalo, and so does 20 GB over a month. If you only need a little data, I would buy their buckets.
What Ringo Light is
Ringo Light is a data eSIM from Ringo, sold to fund the full Ringo: one plan for every country with your own number ported onto it. I write for Ringo, so weigh that. The Middle East version is one eSIM for 12 countries and two unlimited trips at full speed, 2 weeks at $45.99 and 30 days at $62.99. Nothing renews.
You get the eSIM by email in seconds and install it with one scan, no app. The card for buying it is further up the page, after the table.
Pick by trip
Airalo 7 days at $41, or Holafly at $42.90. Ringo Light sells no 7-day plan.
I would buy Ringo Light, 2 weeks, $45.99, for the single install. Its two country plans, $45.98 together, cost a cent less.
I would buy Ringo Light, 30 days, $62.99, against $99 at Airalo.
Nomad 10 GB for 30 days at $25, once you have confirmed that Jordan is on its list.
A short Airalo plan, 3 days, $24, if the day in Amman is the only one outside Egypt.
None of these travel plans does that. The full Ringo, which Ringo Light funds, ports the number you have.
