What are some of the general tips for travellers to Central Coast California during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about significant changes to how we travel. If you're flying to Central Coast California, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:
  • Before committing to anything, see if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your origin and destination. Get up-to-date information by reviewing government and airport websites.
  • Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to temporarily lower your mask for identification purposes.
  • Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it directly on the scanner yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • You can now take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. You'll have to remove it for X-ray scanning.
  • Empty your personal items from your pockets, like your phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
  • If you're planning to take food through the screening checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for closer inspection.
