These things are regulated and checked, but sometimes one will get through - as did one - causing crushed cars in Rochester, NY, resulting in 2 deaths (1999). Frank Rizzo ID888 - Better safe than sorry: When traveling to an unfamiliar place, especially to another country, keep a business card or matchbook or a piece of paper with your hotel's address and phone number on it. If you do get lost or separated from your group, you can show a cab driver the address and be whisked to your 'home base' safe and sound. This is particularly helpful to those in a foreign country with little to no foreign language skills. Brandie Elliott ID428 - You may not know it, but the hotel room you just checked into may be infested with bedbugs. Bedbug infestations are currently growing in vast numbers across the world. Be sure to check the bedding before going to sleep and scan your entire luggage after leaving the hotel. For more information on bedbugs and how they can affect your travels, visit doctorsatyourhome.com for suggestions and tips on health awareness and to ensure that your trips are worry free. Dr. Gardens ID2115 - Mark every piece of luggage inside and outside with your last name and first initial only, and no title (Mr. Mrs. Ms.) If your bag is separated from you and later found, it is useful to list a contact phone number of someone who will be easy to reach at your home city to whom they can send the bag. DO NOT put your home address or destination address on the luggage unless your destination is a hotel or resort. Mike Fox ID239 - On www.holiday-secure.com, you can enter cancellation details about credit cards, debit cards, fuel cards, store cards, and mobile phones. This allows you to instantly cancel a card or phone from anywhere and protect yourself from abuse and identity theft, if a credit card or mobile phone gets lost or stolen.
