  • I don't understand what you mean, a VPC will have Internet Access provided it has been associated with an Internet Gateway. – Wayne Phipps Dec 14 '18 at 21:23

VPCs access the internet through an Internet Gateway or NAT Gateway.

Internet Gateway is probably the easiest and most common

NAT Gateways are to allow outbound access only.

AWS VPC - Internet Gateway vs. NAT
