Banco Chinchorro Holidays

COVID-19 has affected how the world works in so many ways, and travel has changed with it. The following tips will help you navigate the new challenges and get you ready for your escape to Banco Chinchorro:

• Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking your flight. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
• When you pass through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it to verify your identity. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry.
• To reduce the potential of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA employee.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag for X-ray scanning.
• To minimize handling during screening, put items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• If you want to take food on the plane with you, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
