Traveling solo as a female business professional can be empowering, but it’s important to stay vigilant and take proactive steps to ensure your safety. Here’s how you can navigate airports, public transportation, hotels, and employer policies to protect yourself.

Airports: Stay Alert and Prepared

When at the airport, always park in well-lit areas and stay on marked pathways to terminals. Use female-only security screening lines if available, and keep your belongings close. Download airport apps for real-time updates and know the location of security personnel and information desks.

Public Transportation: Be Cautious and Informed

Use public transportation apps to check schedules and avoid long waits in isolated areas. Choose well-lit stations and stops, and if available, opt for women-only carriages or compartments. Stay near other passengers and be aware of your surroundings at all times.

Hotels: Prioritize Your Security

When booking a hotel, choose one with strong security measures. Request a room on higher floors and ensure your room has a peephole, secure locks, and a direct line to the front desk. Use the main entrance and avoid sharing your room number publicly. If possible, select hotels that offer women-only floors or areas.

Employers: Advocate for Your Safety

Communicate your safety concerns with your employer and request detailed travel information for your destinations. Utilize travel safety apps provided by your company and ensure you have 24/7 emergency contact support. Attend any personal safety training sessions your employer offers.  If they don;t, suggest they collaborate with Global Secure Resources for training and advisement.   and keep emergency contacts easily accessible.

By taking these proactive measures, you can significantly enhance your safety and focus on your professional goals with confidence. At CONMIGO, we’re dedicated to providing travel solutions that support your security and well-being on every journey.
