While business travel has gotten safer and easier for female\u00a0travelers, women traveling alone still need to take some special precautions on the road to protect themselves (as well as their\u00a0belongings).<\/p>\n

Travel Safety Tips for Women<\/h2>\n

How to Pack<\/h3>\n

\"Travel<\/p>\n

1. Travel Light and Cheap<\/h4>\n

Carrying heavy bags not only weighs you down, but slows you down as well. You may have to rely on the kindness of strangers to lift your bags. Travel is tough on your luggage \u2014 no matter how expensive it is. So buy lightweight luggage (\u201cspinners\u201d only, they\u2019re much easier to navigate) on sale. The point is to get in and out of the airport quickly.<\/p>\n

2. Dress Conservatively<\/h4>\n

It helps you avoid unwanted male attention, whether you\u2019re eating alone in the hotel bar or in a foreign country.<\/p>\n

3. Leave the Backpack at Home<\/h4>\n

Bring a handbag that can be worn as a crossbody and zips close. Backpacks are not a good choice \u2014 especially in city environments.<\/p>\n

4. Carry a Personal Safety Alarm<\/h4>\n

If you plan to do any sightseeing on your trip or go for a run, a personal safety alarm<\/a> is a good addition to carry.<\/p>\n
