Street/Travel Safety Information

 

  • When departing your hotel room, lock up valuables in a safe or safety deposit box.
  • Do not carry your passport with you once you arrive. Lock up your passport in a hotel safe. If you would like to have identification on you, make a copy of your passport.
  • Do not bring all your cash with you when you leave the hotel. Consider locking a portion in the hotel sleeping room safe or a safety deposit box. 
  • Provide your itinerary to someone back at home/office.
  • When departing the hotel in the evening, place your conference badge in your purse or pocket. 
  • Walk on well-lit and populated streets.
  • Avoid street solicitors and do not feel inclined to provide monetary fund. Feel comfortable saying "no". 
  • When carrying a purse, ensure it is being carried securely under your arm.

 

 

  • Never leave your door ajar when stepping out of your hotel room.
  • Never write your hotel room number on your hotel key.
  • Do not answer the door without checking the peephole and asking who is there.
  • Evaluate the nearest exit from your hotel room and in conference meeting rooms.
  • Identify the nearest fire extinguishers on your hotel floor and in the meeting space.
  • While attending the NCURA conference or conference related events, please wear your name badge at all times. Should you lose your badge, inform the NCURA registration desk immediately.
  • Do not allow anyone access to use your name badge at any time. 
  • Should you find a name badge, return it to NCURA’s registration desk.
  • Fill out the emergency information on the back of your name badge.
