The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't deterred our zeal for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to deal with the new challenges of travelling:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking anything. Also check if there are any requirements you'll have to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
• You must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked.
• To avoid cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
• You're permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. This will need to be taken out for X-ray screening.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your belt, phone and wallet into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
