What are some of the general tips for travellers to Gulf Islands during the COVID-19 outbreak?
If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you'll notice new rules and regulations in place. Take note of these tips and make your escape to Gulf Islands a smooth one:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking anything. Also check if there are any requirements you'll have to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
  • Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA employee will require you to adjust your mask for identification purposes.
  • Instead of handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it straight on the scanner yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA is now allowing 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 at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • Put any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
