With new COVID-19 safety measures in place, travel looks a lot different right now. Here are some useful things to know before you head off to Australia:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before locking in your flight. Also check if there are any requirements you’ll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
• When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to briefly lower it to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied boarding.
• Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
• 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 need to be removed from your bag for X-ray scanning.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
• If you’re bringing food through the screening checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
