What prompted you to disable your eSIM? Airplane mode works just fine on its own to temporarily disable the cellular connection, and you can turn Wifi and Bluetooth back on while in airplane mode. There's also several settings to turn off data roaming if you were worried about accidental extra charges on your phone plan.
Yeah I just wasn't thinking clearly be it early morning or lack of coffee or both. I definitely won't repeat this mistake so its a learning moment now
