Kakuuto Holidays

If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you'll notice a range of new rules and restrictions in place. Take note of these tips and make your escape to Kakuuto go off without a hitch:

• Research the restrictions and rules in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so check before you book your flight.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to lower your mask temporarily to verify your identity.
• To reduce the risk of 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.
• TSA is now permitting 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.
• Place any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce 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 agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
