  • A Degree of Anonymity

  • - When travelling, it is WISE to never put your name AND address on your suitcase or carry-on luggage. Perps hang out in lines at airports, look at luggage tags, and know you are going away. It is an easy burglary. Just put Name and Phone Number, grab a few extra airline tags, and change it once you are on the ground again.

  • Address Book Just For Travel

  • - Don't take your normal address book - get a little one and add the people you'll want to send postcards to. You can also add all your new friends as you travel. If you lose the book, it won't mean loosing all your contacts.

  • Always Be Ready

  • - For those who travel often and have little time to pack, keep a cosmetic bag or drop-kit with dry goods (cotton balls, Q-tips, nail clippers, scissors, bandaids, etc.) and medications (i.e., aspirin, Dramamine, etc.), and another with small bottles of personal items such as shampoo, soaps, lotions, razors, etc. This way you have everything you need always, and the only thing you need to do before a trip is restock if low.

  • Avoid the Aerosol Cans

  • - When traveling overseas on international flights, replace any aerosol cans of hairspray, deodorant, and insect repellent with non-aerosol versions. Many are available as travel size or in smaller containers. Customs agents and airline employees will be less likely to hassle you if they need to search your luggage.

  • Be Comfortable - Be Safe

  • - When I fly, I replace the shoelaces on my travelling shoes with 1/4-inch braided elastic to ease the pain of swollen feet - works well with walking footwear. Also, I carry my important ID in a separate holder. And, I have a 'phony' wallet for the pickpocket. I also use 'bicycle' cable locks for my luggage when long waits are expected.
