What are some of the general tips for travellers to Isla Zapatera during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how the world works in many ways, and travel has changed with it. The following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and prepare you for your holiday in Isla Zapatera:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before committing to a flight. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
  • You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. Be ready to adjust your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
  • To reduce the possibility of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will have to be removed from your bag for X-ray screening.
  • Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
