Liscomb Island Holidays

If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice new rules and standards in place. Take note of these tips and make your journey to Liscomb Island go off without a hitch:

• Before locking in your flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get up-to-date information by checking government and airport websites.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA employee will require you to lower your mask temporarily for ID purposes.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position the pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for screening.
• Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
• If you want to take food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
