What are some of the general tips for travellers to Central Iowa during the COVID-19 outbreak?
Due to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling today comes with some extra challenges. Read through these valuable tips before hopping on your flight to Central Iowa:
  • Know the restrictions and rules in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so check before you book.
  • You're required to wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask for ID verification when asked by a TSA employee.
  • Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position your pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. You'll need to remove it for X-ray screening.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone, wallet and keys into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
