What are some of the general tips for travellers to Black Forest during the COVID-19 outbreak?
With new restrictions and safety precautions in effect, travel looks a bit different at the moment. Here's what you need to know before you hop on that plane to Black Forest:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before committing to a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
  • When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Anyone refusing to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
  • Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, position it straight on the reader yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on baggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for screening.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA agent will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
