La Alpujarra Holidays

The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in big changes to the way we travel. If you're planning a trip to La Alpujarra, these tips will help you navigate these new challenges:

• Look into if any restrictions apply to both your destination and origin. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so check before you book.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for ID purposes.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should place the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for inspection.
• You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. You'll need to remove it for X-ray screening.
• To minimize handling during screening, put items such as your phone, wallet and keys into your carry-on rather than the bins.
• If you want to take food through the security checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for closer inspection.
