I hope your travels are going well.

Thank you.

You’re right on the mark: “a VPN will help avoid security issues especially involving transferring sensitive files from the cloud or a remote server”.  

Also, yes indeed – “airline sites offer different prices for tickets based on the destination location showing from particular IP addresses’

Additionally, we also experienced airline price changes after querying the same route multiple times from the same IP – some adly are TripAdvisor, AirfareWatchdog & Kayak.

All this searching for the least expensive flights available – takes way too much time & patience to do – but most times it pays off when you find what you’re looking for – same with hotels, B&B’s & rental apartments.

Some of many countries we wished we had a VPN were: China, Argentina, Chile, Cambodia, Laos, Italy & Vietnam.  We were lucky to only pick up spam & very fornuate not hacked.
