people at home need to have your itinerary details, flight information, hotel information and phone
numbers;
10. ALWAYS FILL
out the emergency contact information at your workplace;
11. CHOOSE NATIONAL HOTEL CHAINS
with interior room entrances as opposed to motel-style residences with individual point of entries;
hotels with reception or concierge desks near the entrance deter potential threats;
12. ENSURE A ROOM WITH A PEEPHOLE,
preferably with no connecting door to another room is crucial; 13. WOMEN BUSINESS
TRAVELERS must never give out their room number;
14. CHOOSE A NATION AL HOTEL CHAIN
with a good safety record. Some hotels now offer women-only floors. Ask for a room above the
ground floor, near the elevator, and away from emergency exits and stairwells as well as those
near any renovation work;
15. BE CONFIDENT
and alert when inside of elevators; 16. ALWAYS STAND near the control panel, where you have
access to the alarm and floor buttons;
17. USE LAMINATED BUSINESS CARDS AS LUGGAGE TAGS.
Anyone checking the address will not know your home address and telephone number;
18. PLAN AHEAD.
Re search where your meetings or office parties will be and where you will be staying. Hotels at
the outskirts of a city may be cheaper but it can be a false economy if you have to take taxis
everywhere because you don't feel safe coming back after dark; By staying alert and using
common sense, there is no reason why female travellers should not have fun and still be safe.
