Middle Bass Island Holidays

COVID-19 has transformed the world in all sorts of ways, including how and where we're able to travel. The following tips will help you navigate the new challenges and prepare you for your holiday in Middle Bass Island:

• Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
• You must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
• To decrease 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.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for X-ray screening.
• Remove items from your pockets, such as your wallet and phone, and place them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA agent will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
