These are the 7 must-have travel safety items every solo traveler should own

Starting with the most obvious travel safety item, a small personal alarm is obviously a no-brainer. This alarm immediately draws attention to you if your personal safety is threatened in any way. The compact security alarm system sounds when you remove the top pin. To turn it off, just slide the pin back into place.

Of course, aesthetics are not the point here. However, the personal safety alarm is about as chic as personal safety alarms come. There are even a ton of cute colors to choose from to match whatever else you have on your keychain.

Whether you're staying at a bougie five-star resort or an Airbnb, a doorstop alarm is a great option to give you peace of mind while you're sleeping. Yes, even if the room you're staying in has a double lock — you never know who has keys to the room. Just wedge it in the closed door, and it'll keep intruders out by acting as a powerful doorstop. It also features a built-in door alarm that goes off if anyone tries to come in.

A similar idea to the door stop alarm, this portable door lock is another option to be triple-safe. Honestly, there are just so many horror stories about hotel room break-ins and sketchy AirBnB hosts. The nifty piece of travel gear slips right into the doorframe, and you're good to go.

A privacy screen is always a good idea when it comes to both traveling and everyday use. It's the easiest way to prevent people from glancing over at your screen and finding your hotel information, flight reservations, itineraries and confidential group chat tea.

Plus, these tempered glass protectors are both shatter- and scratch-resistant. As a fun little bonus, this set also includes two camera lens protectors.

It's highly likely you'll be traveling with important documents — like your passport and ID, credit cards or expensive jewelry and other valuables. This portable safe is a totally secure, pickpocket-proof bag that comes with a TSA-approved padlock.

The water-resistant fabric is secured with a 360-degree stainless steel wire embedded in a poly canvas fabric. TL;DR: It's super resistant to any tampering, cutting, etc.

One of the most stressful things when it comes to traveling is potentially losing your luggage — whether the airline loses it, it gets stolen, or you misplace it yourself. The easiest way to help get any belongings back is to use an Apple AirTag. You can remotely see where your belongings are at all times using the "Find My" app.

You literally never know when you're going to need a first aid kit, and this one from Amazon has 4.8 out of 5 stars based on over 71,000 reviews. It has 298 items, including everything from ibuprofen and aspirin, Band-Aids and gauze pads to tweezers and a thermometer. And it’s TSA-approved for your carry-on bag. As far as travel safety products go, it’s pretty dope.

Whether or not you actually use it, it's going to seriously come in handy when you nick your ankles shaving or get hit with a wave of cramps. Both of those can ruin your entire trip.
