Staying at a Hotel? very good info be sure to read

Always take a small magnet on your holiday; they come in handy at the end of it. Thought you all needed to know this…. This is  pretty good info. Never even thought about key cards containing anything other than an access code for the room!  

HOTEL  KEY CARDS
 
Ever wonder what is on your magnetic key card?

Answer:
a.  Customer’s name
B.  Customer’s partial home address
c.  Hotel room number
d.  Check-in date and out dates
e. Customer’s  credit card number and expiration date!

When  you turn them in to the front desk your personal information is there for  any employee to access by simply scanning the card in the hotel scanner..
An  employee can take a hand full of cards home and using a scanning device,  access the information onto a laptop computer and go shopping at your  expense.

Simply  put, hotels do not erase the information on these cards until an employee reissues the card to the next hotel guest. At that time, the new guest’s  information is electronically ‘overwritten’ on the card and the
previous guest’s information is erased in the overwriting  process.

But  until the card is rewritten for the next guest, it usually is kept in a 
drawer at the front desk with YOUR INFORMATION ON IT!

The  bottom line is: Keep the cards, take them home with you, or destroy them.  NEVER leave them behind in the room or room wastebasket, and NEVER turn them  into the front desk when you check out of a room.
They will not charge you  for the card (it’s illegal) and you’ll be
sure you are not leaving a lot of  valuable personal information
on it that could be easily lifted off with any simple scanning device card reader.

For the  same reason, if you arrive at the airport and discover you still have the card key in your pocket, do not toss it in an airport trash basket.
Take it  home and destroy it by cutting it up, especially through the
electronic  information strip!

If you  have a small magnet, pass it across the magnetic strip several times.
Then  try it in the door, it will not work. It erases everything on the  card.

lost-luggageThere’s nothing worse than having your luggage lost at the airport, and when you check your luggage, there’s always a risk of that happening. More and more, people are opting to travel light with a single piece of carry-on luggage. When you carry on your luggage, you can rest assured that all of your clothing and personal items are secure, and there’s no risk of them becoming lost at the airport. However, you should also be aware of the rules and regulations associated with carry-on luggage. There are certain restrictions on liquids, electronics, and other equipment, and it’s important to know the regulations before traveling.

Coleman CarryOn Luggage comes in all shapes in sizes, but in general, it is designed to fit in overhead compartments and allow the owner to be confident about the location and handling of their personal effects.
