Safety Tips
It is recommended to go to the airport minimum 2.5 hours before your flight time; many airlines close their counter45 minutes - 1 hour before the flight time. They are legally entitled to do so.
We recommend you not to keep valuables and money in your luggage.
We recommend you to have a label on which your name and your phone number is present on your luggage. (it will be useful to write your own phone number and also phone number of a relative of you not attending to the trip, but can reach you easily). It will be more convenient to write the phone numbers in 00 90 532 … or 00 90 212... form. Make sure not the label will not be deleted or the label not to be torn.
When preparing your luggage, we recommend you to take only the items that may be needed during your travel with you (only credit cards that you will use, valuables etc.)
It would be useful to prepare a hand luggage that you can take with you in the cabin during your flight, in which you can have your travel documents, passports, medications, the necessary materials such as one or two clothes in order not to become a victim in case of any baggage loss until your luggage is found. Weight limit for your hand luggage is 7 kg per person, this weight right may vary according to the airline.
We recommend you not to forget your camera, video camera, charger, and spare memory cards during your trip. Electrical outlet systems used in some countries are incompatible with our country; you can provide the required adapter from the hotel reception and also you can take your own adapter with you.
Be careful when it comes to payment when you find a reliable website to book the hotel. Check your device and all of your software to be sure that they are fully updated with the latest security features before making any process. Money transfer services must be inspected due to security and a built-in solid antivirus program with safe money protection feature must be constantly working. Safe Money technology of Kaspersky Lab checks whether the website is safe or not, and open the website in a special and protected mode after being sure that users are not ripped off by a fake website.
Also create backup for your devices at home
Many people will want to take a mobile phone or computer with them while on vacation. However, holidaymakers storing their valuable data in their phone, tablet or laptop should create a backup waiting for them at home. In this way, if your machine is stolen, damaged or lost all data will be safe in an external hard drive.
Users who want to use their mobile devices on vacation should install some kind of theft prevention protection or at least learn how to use the built-in anti-theft features in their devices. For example, Kaspersky Internet Security Multiple device anti-theft protection feature can store information related to phonebook, calls, text messages and logs if the phone is lost or stolen, and make it possible to block the device, to erase the data, to determine the location and even take photographs of the person trying to use the device.
Keep all the phone numbers on holiday
It is important to have several phone numbers for emergency cases while on vacation with your family. This is especially critical when traveling to the place where internet connection is not in question and abroad. Therefore, all phone numbers should be stored in the phone, laptop or by noting on a paper. Also, you should learn how to make phone calls to your own country when you are traveling abroad.
Attention to Wi-Fi Hotspots
It is necessary to pay special attention to wi fi 3-Hi-zone hotspots. Hidden leaks can occur while using the free Wi-Fi in the hotels or cafes. If possible, avoid performing online banking and shopping transactions or other sensitive operations without a secure VPN connection from the Hotspots. While our advice for those who plan to use Hotspots isstaying safe by using a VPN application or software.
Have plan B for Credit Cards
Take more than one credit card or debit card while going on vacation; so you will have a plan B if your card is stolen or canceled. If you will take a large amount of cash money with you, leave it in the safe of the hotel (also leave your passport if it is not required to carry with you).
