Alert: Displaying personal information on luggage tags can expose you to identity theft or harassment.

Impact: When your name, phone number, and address are visible, strangers can misuse this information, potentially leading to identity fraud or unwanted contact.

Action:

    1. Flip Your Luggage Tag: Ensure that your luggage tag is facing backwards to hide your personal details from casual onlookers.
    2. Be Cautious with Social Media: Avoid posting real-time updates of your travel plans on public platforms to minimize exposure.
    3. Educate Travel Companions: Inform family and friends, especially those traveling with children, about the importance of protecting personal information during travel.
