The very first thing that should be taken care of is to know how exactly this virus spreads. Well, the disease is highly contagious and you may be exposed to the virus without even knowing. The swine flu virus may attack you easily even if an affected person sneezes in front of you. The virus infection can spread by coming in contact of a contaminated surface affected by the virus. The most common situation for the disease to widely spread is reported to be when an infected person travels or comes in contact of a huge group.
If you cannot avoid travelling to any of vulnerable places, the best way to protect yourself is NOT to travel with a public transport. So, make your plans in such a way that you can avoid travelling in group to such places. For example, if you have to travel around 500 Km, it will be a good idea to travel in your own car or in a hired taxi. The main idea is to avoid public transport as far as possible.
Next, avoid touching anything unnecessarily. You may knowingly come in contact with a contaminated surface. You must not touch face, eyes or nose of anyone if you suspect someone is not feeling well no matter how well known he is to you. It will be a good idea to wear a mask all the time you are travelling in the city.

When you move in a hotel, make sure that hotel crew maintains good hygiene in your room. For your lunch and dinner, you can have only packed food available in the retail stores in case you have to stay in the city for a short duration. Do not ignore any instance when you notice someone affected with cold, cough or fever. Avoid celebrating parties, watching movies in theaters, going to church and shopping etc. The basic idea is to avoid the crowd in a vulnerable city. Wash your hands properly before and after you take anything.
Finally, do get some information about the place you are going. It will be really good to be acquainted about the most popular places in the city. That's how you can plan NOT to visit these places even by mistake to avoid any infection. I would recommend having a good idea about most famous places in a particular US state/city.
