How to watch Home Alone Anywhere This Christmas by Using a VPN

ExpressVPN Demo

ExpressVPN has been a VPN industry leader for over 10 years, making it the most reliable choice for browsing, downloading, and streaming. Its lightning-fast servers in the US and UK ensure the best streaming experience on Disney + and Amazon Prime. Express has also developed plenty of customizable features to enable you to unblock any streaming platform in any part of the world in complete privacy – even in countries with the strictest censorship.

Unblock the greatest variety of content this Christmas

ExpressVPN has servers in over 94 countries across the globe, which is enough to unblock any Christmas content you can think of. Connect to any of the many fast servers in the US and enjoy Home Alone without buffering or lagging. Express is always my number one VPN choice for streaming movies because I know that it can handle HD videos and overcome ISP throttling.

Express VPN is great for Disney+ and Amazon Prime, but that's just the beginning. Express can unblock Netflix and BBC iPlayer better than any other VPN, and ensures the fastest browsing and downloading speeds across different websites and stores.

Even if you’re resident in countries like China, Egypt, or the United Arab Emirates, you won't face any difficulty unblocking censored streaming and social media platforms, thanks to Express's obfuscated (stealth) servers. All your visits to Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter will be undetectable by governments or local ISPs, so you can post and send your Christmas wishes from anywhere without fear that somebody will pry on your messages.

Unparalleled speeds

Speed is a very important factor for choosing the right VPN, especially if you are looking for one to stream movies and TV shows. We conduct speed tests for over 140 different VPNs several times a day – and Express is consistently one of the fastest services on the market.
