Tips to Protect Yourself While Traveling
Once You Are at the Airport:
13. When traveling alone, spot a safe buddy while you travel. Someone you can befriend that can help keep an eye on your luggage.
14. Put your laptop on the belt last so that you can keep an eye on it.

Tips to Protect Yourself While Traveling
At Your Vacation Destination:
16. Avoid the temptation to post about your vacation on social media; this alerts criminals to a vacant house. Suggest posting after vacation
17. Be sure to share your itinerary with a friend or family member. So they know when and where you should be at all times.
18. Don’t carry all your cash, credit cards, or passports in the same place. Keep some money on you and pack the rest in a safe place.
19. Make two copies of your passport, leave one at home and take the second with you when sightseeing. Leave the original in the safety of your hotel room.

Unlike other agents I've recently dealt with, Justine was very helpful and professional. She seemed to appreciate my business and I appreciated her getting my quote back to me in a timely manner. It was a pleasure doing business with her.

Alexis at A Plus Insurance is an amazingly friendly and very customer-service focused representative of your company. She was extremely thorough in wanting to understand my inquiries and she ensured all of my questions were answered in a timely manner. She even made an extra effort to call me back and confirm I received all of the information I had requested. Alexis made me feel like I was her number one concern and didn't rush our conversation. Alexis is a definite "keeper" for your agency. Many, many thanks to Alexis and your insurance agency for helping fulfill our insurance needs! p.s. Marlon, another employee of your company also extended me very similar courtesies. He is a "keeper" too! ~ Heather Forbes

Crystal at A Plus Insurance is extremely helpful and pleasant to talk to. Getting insurance can be difficult and annoying for me to do but Crystal really helps to make the process go smoothly and feel easy on my end. She’s super friendly and makes it easy to sit on the phone for an hour to figure things out. I’ve never had a bad experience with them and would highly recommend everyone work with A Plus for their insurance needs.
