I'd suggest you get a prepaid sim card here which is available as soon as you exit immigration =)

there are 2 providers at immigration, usually a little counter by duty free and next to a lovely unaffordable car..... You can chose from du or etisalat, its a personal choice which one you go with

Pre paid Mobile plan from du | Pay as you Go | du

Wasel - Prepaid Mobile

Just go for DU as they have better international rates which is basically what you want.

I recently bought a DU one for 55 dirhams and it had 10 dirhams on it as well.
