Safety Tips for Travel


As I take my first business trip of the new year, I remind myself of some safety tips that might help you out in your future travels. These tips might seem very simplistic, but yet they are very important to over all safety. My company http://www.ashlandcorner.com/ will make several trips a year and we like to review these travel safety tips with our employees in our company newsletter. So we thought that we would state them in our blog, so that they are in the back of your mind.


Hotel Safety Tips



  • Keep your room key with you at all times, and if you do loose it remember to let the front dest know. Most hotels have electronic cards and can easily change the code.

  • When you are in your room, close the door securely and make use of all locking devices.

  • Check doorwall doors and conecting room doors and make sure they are secure, most people don't bother to check these doors.

  • While traveling you don't want to draw attention to yourself , so keep large amounts of cash out of site and keep jewelery to a limited.

  • Place any valuables you have in the hotel safe.

  • Take a few minutes to look for all emergency exits, this is vital information you need to know.

  • When returning to your hotel room, be very ware of your soroundings as you just don't know what is around any corner.

  • If you see suspicous activity, notify the front dest or a staff member.

  • Don't answer your hotel room door until you verify who it is, if it is a hotel staff member verify by calling the front desk.

I hope these tips will make you think twice the next time you go on a trip. If you like these tips please pass this blog along, and be sure to visit http://www.ashlandcorner.com/ . Have a great next trip!
