COVID-19 may have changed the way we travel, but it hasn't curbed our zest for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to deal with travel's new challenges:
  • Research what, if any, restrictions or rules apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check in advance.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Those who refuse to wear a mask may be denied entry or boarding.
  • To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray screening.
  • To reduce handling during screening, place items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to touch and inspect your belongings.
