AirVPN vs 
Private Internet Access
AirVPN and Private Internet Access both list 23 countries. 0 countries are listed only by AirVPN, and 90 only by Private Internet Access.1
What our measurements show
- 23 countries are in both lists. Our measurements confirm the listed country for AirVPN in 20 of them and for Private Internet Access in 22. In the rest, no location has been measured yet, or the measurement does not allow a conclusion.
- For 1 of Private Internet Access's 215 measured locations, the server is outside the listed country. Measurements on two days showed this, and Private Internet Access's list does not mark any of them as virtual.
- At 41 of Private Internet Access's measured locations, the server is outside the listed country. Private Internet Access's own list marks each one as virtual.
- Private Internet Access's list shows which locations are virtual: 96 of 215. AirVPN's list has no such field, so it does not tell you whether any of its locations are virtual.
- In 5 of the 23 countries both list, servers of both providers are in the same network, for example M247 Europe SRL in Canada. In those countries, switching to the other provider does not get you a different network.
From our own data: the server lists we read, our measurements, and our check of each home page. Apps, speed, and streaming are not tested.2
