What should you pay attention to when traveling safely?

As long as we improve our safety awareness and learn travel safety knowledge, we can avoid most of the travel safety problems that may occur. Let the editor of SmartView tell you what you should pay attention to when traveling safely. Let’s take a look!

Things you should pay attention to when traveling by air. When taking an airplane, you should pay attention to flight safety, fasten your seat belt, and do not wear any safety belt. Dangerous or flammable items, do not use portable mobile phones and other related electronic items during aircraft takeoff and landing.

When riding a bus, please do not change seats at will, and do not stick your head or hands out of the window. When getting on or off the bus, please pay attention to the direction of the oncoming vehicle to avoid danger.

Please put valuables in the hotel safe. If you carry them with you, please keep them safe and never let them go.

Please close the door when entering or exiting the hotel room. Do not put clothes on the lamp or smoke in bed. If you hear the fire alarm, please leave quickly through the emergency exit and do not take the elevator

Before each check-out, please check your luggage, paying special attention to your documents and valuables.

When traveling, pay attention to your health. Do not eat raw food, raw seafood, peeled fruits, and do not patronize unlicensed roadside stalls to prevent overeating. Drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, smoke less, and drink less alcohol.

When traveling in a group, you are not allowed to leave the group without permission. If you need to leave the group alone, please obtain the consent of the accompanying tour guide, and carry the address and phone number of the local hotel where you are staying to avoid accidents

Before arriving at the scenic spot, remember the gathering place, time, and place specified by the tour guide. Take the tour bus number. In case of being separated from the group, please wait at the centralized location for the tour guide to return and look for you.

If you go out on your own at night or during free time, please inform the accompanying tour guide or group members to pay special attention to safety.

If there are any stimulating activities during the itinerary or during free activities, those in poor physical condition should not participate. People with heart disease, lung disease, asthma, and high blood pressure should avoid engaging in water or high-altitude activities.

When taking a speedboat, rafting, or participating in water activities, please wear a life jacket as required and follow the instructions of the staff.

When playing in the water at the beach, please do not exceed the safety warning line. If you are not familiar with water, do not go into the water alone

Do not expose your wealth in public places, and do not count it in public when shopping. banknote.

What should girls pay attention to when marching alone? 1. Report your itinerary frequently

Before traveling, tell your family and friends about your travel plan. Try to be as detailed as possible about where you will be every day, where you will live, and where you will be. The contact information, the contact information of the places where you stay every day along the way (whether it is a hotel, a friend's house, or something else), etc., focus on the places where the signal may not be very good, so that the family can have peace of mind.

While traveling, post to your circle of friends with address tags every day (if you are particularly security-conscious, don’t post on Weibo with address tags. Please understand why by yourself). There is basically no difficulty in reporting an itinerary domestically. If you are traveling abroad, you can just rent a mobile Wi-Fi in advance.

If the network does not allow it, just send text messages on mobile phones. It only costs 2 yuan per message abroad, which is not expensive.

If you don’t even have a mobile phone text message signal, it means you are really going to a very remote place. First ask yourself if you have the ability to go to these places. It is recommended to go with others and if financial conditions permit. Rent a satellite phone, please contact us for details.

2. Backup of all important documents

Important documents include: passport information page and visa page (exit), ID card front and back (domestic), hotel reservation, air ticket reservation, Insurance company policy and compensation details, bank/credit card front and back, local police phone number, local Chinese embassy or consulate phone number, and other documents you think are important.

There are 2 ways to save:

1) Put the copy in your luggage and keep it separately from the original;

2) Scan an electronic copy and send it to your mailbox .

3. Check out how local women dress online

Girls in most countries and regions dress similarly to us. You can just pay attention to the weather conditions and add or subtract as appropriate. The safest way to dress is to dress like local women. It will blend in with the crowd and not stand out, and it will have an invisible protective film. Just browse the recent local social news pictures and follow them to wear them.

I can’t list all the cases here, so I can only pick a few that impressed me deeply among the countries I’ve been to:

1) In India, which has been the most hacked , local women tend to show their waists but not their legs. Exposed legs are considered very lewd. You must pay attention to this when dressing. Don't wear miniskirts and wander around the streets. If you don't bring the right clothes, go to the street stalls to buy baba. Trousers, don't do it.

2) When going to any Muslim country, cover the areas that need to be covered, and don’t play sideways just for the sake of America. Girls in some Muslim countries are not rigid in their dress code and do not need to cover their veils tightly. In many secular Muslim countries, such as Malaysia, it is no problem for you to wear skirts and expose your arms and legs. Look around on the Internet. If I really don’t have a good grasp, so I’d rather be conservative. Respecting other people’s culture is much more important than beauty. Another tip is that you can bring a basic set of clothes and buy them locally. You can usually find cheap and suitable ones.

3) Japan is rich in action movies, and girls are famous for bare legs in the winter, but I don’t know why I go to small places, even in the very hot summer, the streets are I don’t see camisole tops and hip-length hot pants (maybe it’s because I’m ignorant). Every time I come back in the summer, I lament that the girls in China dress in a much bigger way than the girls in Japan.

4) Even on the beach, bikinis are not accepted globally, so understand this in advance.

Whenever sexual harassment cases are reported on the social news, there are always sour comments saying: "You were sexually harassed because you were dressed too revealingly?" This kind of statement has no basis in fact and is quite disgusting. However, when you go out, Outside, being low-key is better than being ostentatious, nozuonodie, you know.

4. Check the most common forms of local crimes online

In terms of deception and crime forms, I think scammers are generally quite lazy. Every place has a routine: some just like to tie you a rope in the square, some like to take you to feed the pigeons, some always pretend to be policemen, some like to bump into you, and some like to scratch bags. Search the Internet for bad experiences of other travelers, or read local lifestyle news. The scams and forms of crime that you should pay attention to when traveling safely are all listed above.

5. Understand the local police methods and the contact information of the Chinese consulate in advance

Every time you visit a new country, you must know the local police methods in advance.

My personal habit is to check online in advance. If there is an alarm number, I usually take the time to call it after getting off the plane and picking up my luggage to see what the alarm process is, whether there is English assistance, and call the police. The phone is set to mobile phone speed dial (it seems to be a waste of public resources... I should criticize myself). I have never used this before, and I feel confident.

Many people complained that the Chinese consulate was unable to help if something happened overseas. If you were stolen, cheated, or lost money, it is recommended that you go to the police or the insurance company yourself, just in case. If you encounter a major event that threatens your life and safety (none of which have happened to me or my friends so far), you still have to be prepared. This information is available on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, save one.

6. You still need to buy travel insurance

You must have insurance awareness, including two aspects:

1) Buy insurance! Buy insurance!! Buy insurance !!!

2) If you don’t study the insurance rules thoroughly after buying insurance, it means you didn’t buy it!!!

Now insurance companies have very mature travel insurance packages, Qiongyou Insurance There are many channels.

How to choose? My personal experience is that when purchasing, pay special attention to whether the following insurance terms are included.

Order from important to unimportant:

-Global 24-hour emergency contact number in Chinese

-Overseas medical compensation

-Personal property protection (including insurance for loss of important documents and luggage)

-Journey delay

Thousands! Wan! Remember! Read the compensation rules carefully before traveling, and print out the insurance details and take them with you. If something bad happens, stay calm and follow the procedures. If you don’t understand, call the insurance company to communicate clearly.

7. Memorize the most common event processing by heart

The following solutions are the ones I have used and are only used to inspire others. (Yes, I lost them all, and it was full of tears... T_T) Go through it in your mind before leaving.

1) What should I do if I lose my cash?

-Prevention: It is recommended to divide cash into 2 parts and store them separately. If you are traveling abroad, know in advance which ATMs accept UnionPay withdrawals and your Credit card overseas cash withdrawal limit.

-Incident: ATM withdrawal, Western Union transfer, etc.

-Crooked trick: In an emergency, you can use WeChat to find a nearby Chinese person to transfer funds and withdraw funds.

2) What should I do if I lose my bank card?

-Prevention: Carry cash and cards separately, and carry credit cards and debit cards separately to reduce the probability of losing all the card money. Understand the emergency bank card replacement process.

-What happened: Cut down on expenses, urgently replace the card, maybe you can go to the bank to withdraw money without a card in China.

-Crooked trick: In an emergency, you can use WeChat to find a nearby Chinese person to transfer funds and withdraw funds.

3) What should I do if I lose both cash and bank cards?

-Prevention: Carry cash and cards separately, and carry credit cards and debit cards separately to reduce the risk of losing all the card money. Probability, understand the bank card emergency card replenishment process in advance.

-Incidence: emergency card replacement, borrowing from someone through mortgage or personal credit, Western Union transfer, etc.

-Crooked trick: In an emergency, you can use WeChat to ask the Chinese people around you to transfer funds and withdraw funds through human flesh.

4) What should I do if my luggage is lost?

- Prevention: Keep important luggage with you.

-The incident: If you bought insurance, remember to go to the police station to make a record. You will need this when you come back to apply for compensation. If you really lose it, you can only buy it locally. (I once called the police with the mentality of waiting for insurance compensation, but the police found my luggage later)

5) What should I do if I lose my ID card?

-Prevention : Hey, why don’t you take it easy?

-Incidence: Temporary identity certificates valid for one day can be obtained at airports and train stations. If you want to stay in a hotel, go to the local police station and ask them how to handle it (the specific handling methods are different in each place)

6) What should I do if I lose my passport?

-Prevention: Hey. .

-What happened: Go to the police station to make a record and issue a certificate, contact the Chinese consulate to issue a travel permit, some countries have more procedures, please ask the consulate.

7) What should I do if I get sick?

- Prevention: Bring some simple medicine (I usually bring: motion sickness medicine, fever patch, diarrhea treatment, band-aid, individually packaged small alcohol cotton ).

-What happened: For minor illnesses, you can go directly to the pharmacy, and many pharmacies have doctors on staff. If you are able to return to your country due to a sudden serious illness, you should immediately return to your country for treatment no matter how expensive it is. If you cannot return to your country, call the insurance company and explain the situation to see if the disease is covered by the compensation. If it can be compensated, which hospital you need to go to and what kind of hospital you need to go to. What documents to keep.

8. Try to stay in public places as much as possible

Unless absolutely necessary, try not to walk alone at night or go to remote places alone.

The itinerary is a little looser.

9. Keep a curious and vigilant heart

Dealing with strangers is a science. It must not only satisfy your desire to interact with local people, but also be reasonable and appropriate. How to control the distance?

My personal experience:

1) All interactions should be limited to public occasions

2) Don’t go with others, unless you are having a very interesting conversation, and you are going to a tourist attraction or other public place with a lot of people. You will never go to a private place, and you won’t go to a lot of speculation

3) Don’t go with other people home, unless it is a family invitation

4) Do not take a ride, unless it is a female driver or a family car with children

5) Do not eat anything given by a stranger with whom you are familiar.

6) Don’t let drinks and food out of sight. If you need to go to the bathroom in a hurry, you won’t eat anything on the table again

7) Take the initiative to strike up a conversation and speak English when you have nothing to do. People who are particularly good should be more vigilant

8) At any time, control the intoxication of drinking within 5 minutes, and stop alcohol and change to juice after crossing the line

9) Also There is a politically incorrect saying: Beware of fellow villagers who are inexplicably enthusiastic and proactive

Really don’t be nervous, most of the strangers you chat with are just bored and want to chat with you. .

10. Finally, give the girls some confidence

After reading so much, do you feel that there are traps outside your home and you don’t dare to go out to play?

Don’t worry, most countries in the world are very safe. I have a train station theory, that is, if you can survive at the Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou train stations, you will be safe in most countries and regions in the world. Take me personally as an example. After running for so many years, the most "incidents" I have experienced are all careless things thrown away by myself...

In extremely rare criminal incidents, theft and money fraud These two items account for more than 95% and have nothing to do with personal safety. Do more work ahead of time, understand the local culture in advance, do various preventive work in advance, stock up on safety knowledge in advance, and keep a safety awareness, so that you can enjoy your trip safely.

In addition, criminal incidents do not only exist when traveling. The same accidents may also occur in our daily lives. When encountering problems, stay calm first and you will gain the initiative.
