Spotting danger before it happens while traveling alone or with
your family is a skill that can be developed and may even save your
life. So, you've decided to go on vacation. Good for you!
Unfortunately, when planning a getaway, you must think about more
than just the fun stuff; you must also consider your personal
safety and the safety of those you're traveling with. This is where
situational awareness comes into play. Domestic and international
vacationers spend nearly 1.1 trillion dollars annually in the U.S.
alone. Any time there's that much cash involved you can expect
there will be someone nearby looking to take advantage of you. When
traveling, you must acknowledge and prepare for this potential
danger. In Spotting Danger for Travelers, you will learn how to
develop a solid foundation of situational awareness, preemptively
spot danger, quickly implement escape plans, and take control of
your own safety while traveling. Details include: Conducting a
threat assessment on your destination Properly securing your home
while away Taking travel precautions on the road and in the air
Securing your temporary accommodations Building situational
awareness techniques specific for traveling Becoming familiar with
your surrounding area Developing an appropriate cultural awareness
Dealing with so called “common” encounters Creating contingency
plans when “incidents” occur Regardless of your location,
criminals tend to stick to specific patterns of behavior. This book
will teach you important skills including how predators choose
their victims, how to establish behavioral baselines, the process
for identifying baseline anomalies, and how to harden your personal
defenses. By implementing what you learn here, you can travel
confidently and be secure with the knowledge that you can spot
danger before it has the chance to spot you. “Today more
than ever, it is imperative that we pay close attention to our
surroundings and learn how to interpret what’s happening around
us. Tragic events can often be both predictable and preventable.”
—Gary Quesenberry Federal Air Marshal (Ret.)
