Guiana Highlands Holidays

With new rules, restrictions and safety measures to follow, travel looks a little different at present. Here's what you need to know before you pack your suitcase for Guiana Highlands:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before committing to a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as installing a contact tracing app.
• Requirements state you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to adjust your mask for ID verification when asked by a TSA officer.
• To reduce the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
• TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed from your bag and presented for screening.
• Remove personal items from your pockets, like your wallet, phone and small change, and put them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open your bag for inspection.

In order to lessen the contact between passengers and flight attendants during the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of airlines have taken social distancing and other precautionary measures to the skies. A great example of these are:
