SAVE HOLIDAYS

As the holiday season approaches, many travel far and wide, leaving their homes unoccupied for days or weeks. Undesirably the holiday season also sets forth a high record of road-accidents and misdemeanors such as house break-ins and thefts.

"Check your maps before you begin your journey so you could understand the routes and tour confidently" As the unforeseen may happen whilst on the road, our Kurnia Auto Assist roadside service comes as a handy reinforcement -offering towing and workshop services in times of need. Concurrently, the holiday period is a good time to consider attaining some forms of protection ranging from home to travel insurance that would safeguard you from any personal or property losses that may incur beyond your will. For example, your long awaited plan for a holiday has finally set forth. After travelling for 14 hours, you finally touch down. Tired and worn out from the long journey, you waited patiently for your baggage to arrive, only to find that it has been mistakenly flown to another destination. There was nothing you could do but to purchase the necessities to last you the night as you wait for your luggage to be re-routed. In this situation, despite the anger and frustration, you could at least have some assurance that the unnecessary costs incurred are covered by your travel insurance. Throughout your frequent rounds of travel, you would never thought the day would come when this could happen to you. Wouldn't it be good to know that you have your insurance to stand by you? Not wanting to face more surprises upon returning home from your holiday, it is best to adopt some theft prevention measures to safeguard your home and property before you leave. As bothersome as they may seem, you would never know if that small effort could save you from all the troubles that arise. Keeping all this in mind, you should be able to enjoy your much anticipated holiday with a peaceful mind! Out and About While you and your loved ones are out and about, it is imperative to keep in mind that tourists to thieves are like flowers to bees. Often lost or distracted, weighed down with bags, or carrying cameras, plane tickets, money, and other valuables, unsuspecting travellers are easy criminal targets. Although many believe that the best advise would be to blend in with the crowd, there are also some preventive measures that always come in handy. Don't display expensive jewellery and other items that might draw attention. Watch out for your cameras, handbags, and other small items especially in very crowded places. Check your maps before you begin your journey so you could understand the routes and tour confidently. Stick to well lit, well-travelled streets at all times - no shortcuts. Always lock your car even when you are driving. Carjacking is known to occur while the victim stops at traffic lights. Keep valuables out of sight, preferably locked in the trunk. Don't advertise that you're a tourist by leaving maps and guidebooks on the seat or dashboard. Travelling safely with your family also means sticking together and keeping an eye on your children at all times. Make sure they know where you're staying (name and address), and teach them what to do if they get lost or separated. Agreeing on a meeting place in case of separation helps too. And by all means, make sure your kids know not to accept rides or favours from strangers. Make your family vacation a memorable one for all the right reasons.
