Iphone 16 pro - No service in either simcards after flight mode

My one year old Iphone 16-pro indicates "No Service". I have two simcards one physical and eSim and neither of them gets any signal.

I tried:

Network reset
Updated to the most recent IOS
Hard reset
Flight Mode on and off

Nothing worked so far.

I did not try "Erase all content and Reset" because unfortunately this happened when I went to holiday with a fligth. At least for now, I have access to everything when I am connected to the WiFi. If factory reset does not work, then I will also lose some of the loggings that requires sms confirmation.

Any idea ?

iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 26

I tried several different simcards from different providers. So, I believe this is a phone problem. Also my current simcard works on another phone.

When you take the phone in for service, what will you do when the service shop first asks if you have contacted your carrier?

When the OP mentioned that they had tried "Hard Restarts", I assumed that to mean a Forced Restart.

But....that may have been a mistake, since it is not wise to assume anything.
