They say people will be able to get a booster shot 6 or 8 months after their second shot which in your case means at the very earliest you might be able to get it the second or third week of January. If it is done by appointment only and if the roll-out to the general public starts in January then I assume those who were vaccinated in May and June will get a notification first, really impossible to say.

Sorry, regarding the booster shot I don't know, my understanding is that once the first wave of it is done (older people, health care workers etc.) the general public will be offered a booster shot starting in January and it will be strictly by invitation. This means you will get a text message or email when it's your turn since you would have provided either your phone number or email address when you registered earlier this year for the first and second shot. I can't remember when you had your second shot, but whether you are already being offered a booster or not depends a lot on that. My wife and I had our second shot on June 11 and they say booster shots will be offered after at least 6 months so for us that would be mid December and I hope that we will also get our invite to book an appointment some time in January or early February. We are planning to go to the Philippines at the very end of February or early March and hopefully we'll get it before then. I would, however, want to have it at least a week or 10 days before I go on a major trip like yours or ours just in case you do experience a bit of a reaction; I certainly would not book it for a day or two before you are about to go on a long flight.

My provider is Freedommobile and I don’t have an ESIM compatible phone right now but I would upgrade should I decide to go for the ESIM. My plan, tentatively,, is for the third week of January, 2022.

Hi Fazil, What is the newest phone you have? E-SIM was first supported on the iPhone XS and XR which were released in the fall of 2018. I you have a compatible phone like the above or an 11, 12 or now 13-series phone (or SE2020) it would be best if you switch to e-SIM with your provider here in Canada. As long as you are with Telus, Rogers or Bell that is no problem, but as far as I know the MVNO's like Koodo, Virgin, Fido etc. don't support e-SIM. I just switched back to Telus from Koodo and while they first sent me a SIM card, I was told that once my number had been ported over from Koodo and everything was set up I could get a QR code shipped to me and make the switch to e-SIM. Once that is done you can then remove the physical SIM from the tray and throw it away and your SIM tray will now be available for a SIM card when you travel whether it is your upcoming trip to Saudi Arabia or whether you are going back home to Pakistan. You can even set up a special ringtone for the physical SIM so you know right away when the phone rings whether it's your main number or not although I am not entirely sure how it works if you assign a custom ringtone to a particular contact whether that contact if they called the local number from whatever country you are in would have the ringtone you set up for that SIM or whether the ringtone you assigned to the contact would have priority. When is your trip, I hope the new COVID-19 variant won't disrupt your plans.

As you know of my intended trip to Saudi Arab where I have to purchase a local SIM. My question, simply, is that do I have to hand my phone physically to the person who would take my fingerprints, enter my visa information and complete the rest of the process, or it would be all through his computer without me handing the phone to him?
