Maconnais Holidays

With new rules, restrictions and safety measures in effect, travel looks a lot different these days. Here are some useful things to know before you jet off to Maconnais:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to adjust your mask for ID purposes.
• Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it directly on the reader yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. This will need to be taken out for screening.
• Put any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
• If you're bringing food through security screening, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.

Air travel is looking very different these days. Airlines throughout the world have implemented a range of measures, including social distancing, to minimize the spread of COVID-19. Here are two top examples:

• Ryanair - this airline is known for cleaning with disinfectant and providing passenger masks.
• Air Corsica - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and providing passenger masks.
