Your Home Internet, Anywhere in the World
Hotel Wi-Fi, airport lounges, coffee shops abroad — public networks are a goldmine for hackers. PremierVPN encrypts everything, lets you access content from home, and keeps your banking, emails, and personal data safe no matter where you are.
Why Travellers Need a VPN
Hotel Wi-Fi Attacks
Hotel networks are prime targets for man-in-the-middle attacks. Hackers can intercept your login credentials, banking details, and personal data on unencrypted networks.
Airport & Café Wi-Fi
Free public Wi-Fi at airports, cafés, and train stations is often completely unencrypted. Anyone on the same network can potentially see your traffic.
Content Geo-Blocks
Your streaming services, news sites, and banking apps may be blocked or show different content when you're abroad. A VPN connects you back to your home country.
Government Censorship
Some countries restrict access to social media, messaging apps, and news sites. A VPN bypasses these blocks so you can use the internet freely.
What You Can Do With PremierVPN Abroad
Access Home Content
Connect to a UK server while abroad to access BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, and other region-locked services as if you were at home.
Safe Online Banking
Access your bank accounts securely from abroad. A VPN prevents your banking credentials from being intercepted on untrusted networks.
Use Messaging Apps
WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and other messaging apps are blocked in some countries. A VPN bypasses these restrictions so you can stay in touch.
Read Local News
Access your home country's news websites without hitting paywalls or geo-restrictions designed for domestic audiences only.
Protect Your Identity
Hide your real IP address and encrypt all traffic. Prevents tracking by local ISPs, government surveillance, and hackers on the same network.
Avoid Price Discrimination
Airlines, hotels, and booking sites sometimes show different prices based on your location. Connect from different countries to compare and find the best deals.
Travel VPN Tips
Install before you travel
Download and set up PremierVPN on all your devices before your trip. Some countries block VPN download sites.
Enable the kill switch
Turn on the kill switch in Settings so if the VPN drops on hotel Wi-Fi, your data is never exposed unencrypted.
Use stealth mode in restrictive countries
If standard VPN connections are blocked, use AnyConnect (port 443) which looks like normal HTTPS traffic.
Connect to your home country for banking
Banks may flag logins from unusual locations. Connect to a UK server before accessing your bank to avoid triggers.
Use auto-connect on untrusted networks
Enable auto-connect in app settings so the VPN activates automatically when you join any new Wi-Fi network.

Travel VPN FAQ
In the vast majority of countries, yes. VPN use is legal throughout Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific, and most of the world. A small number of countries restrict VPN use (China, Russia, UAE, Iran). In these countries, using a VPN is typically a grey area — millions of people use them daily, but it's worth being aware of local regulations.
WireGuard adds minimal overhead — typically 1-5ms of latency and negligible speed loss. If your hotel Wi-Fi is already slow, the VPN won't make it noticeably worse, and the security benefits far outweigh any minor speed difference.
China blocks many VPN protocols. Our AnyConnect protocol (running over HTTPS on port 443) is designed to bypass deep packet inspection and may work in restrictive environments. We recommend installing the app and configuring AnyConnect before entering China, as VPN download sites are often blocked.
All of them. Your phone, laptop, and tablet are all vulnerable on public Wi-Fi. PremierVPN supports Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Linux, and Fire TV — and you can connect up to 10 devices simultaneously on a Premium plan.
Yes. Connect to a server in your home country before logging into your bank. This prevents your bank from flagging the login as suspicious due to an unfamiliar location, and encrypts your banking credentials on any network.
