What are some of the general tips for travellers to Lake Winnipeg during the COVID-19 outbreak?
In the era of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling now comes with a few extra challenges. Keep in mind these handy tips before jumping on your flight to Lake Winnipeg:
  • Before booking anything, find out if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by checking government websites.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly to confirm your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position the pass on the reader and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will need to be removed from your bag to be screened.
  • Put any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • 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 officer will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
