As more travelers are hitting the road, Best Western Hotels & Resorts is ensuring guests that their safety comes first with the implementation of the We Care Clean program. As Best Western takes care of the cleanliness and safety of your stay, here are some ways you can promote safety and health on the road:

Plan your route in advance

  • As businesses continue to reopen and function under local government mandates, knowing your route, including your stops, will help you avoid unnecessary detours and limit your interaction with others.

Use the AAA or CAA app

  • Among offering members discounts and perks, the AAA and CAA apps provide roadside assistance anywhere and anytime.

Stay mobile

  • Sitting in the car for long periods can cramp anyone’s joints. As part of your planned route, use your stops to stretch and unwind before hitting the road again.

Pack your snacks 

  • Packing your snacks is a perfect way to practice social distancing without compromising your hunger.

Sanitization essentials

  • Along with your standard car emergency kit, pack all the sanitization essentials deemed fit for your journey; hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes, masks, etc.

Protect your skin

  • Even if you are spending hours in the car, SPF is key to any road trip.

Keep the brain active

  • Like any road trip, sometimes the scenery can be mundane for stretches at a time. Instead of staring out the window wishful thinking, use your time on the road to stimulate your brain. Listen to podcasts, audiobooks, music, or who-dun-it stories that the whole car can participate in.

Get plenty of rest

  • Sometimes driving the full 18 hours in one seating sounds like a great idea until you hit hour six. Listen to your body and rest as needed. There are thousands of Best Western hotels to choose from with all ready to welcome you.
