Boca Chica Key Holidays

The COVID-19 outbreak has brought about major changes to how we travel. If you're planning a trip to Boca Chica Key, these tips will help you navigate these new challenges:

• Before locking in your flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking government and airport websites.
• Requirements state you must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. Be ready to adjust your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
• Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it straight on the scanner yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You're permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. You'll need to remove it for X-ray scanning.
• Place any personal items (e.g, wallet, keys and phone) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to touch and inspect your belongings.

In order to limit contact between passengers and flight attendants during the ongoing pandemic, most airlines have taken social distancing and other strategies to the skies. An example of these are:

• American Airlines - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
