With new restrictions and safety precautions in effect, travel looks a bit different at present. Here are some useful things to know before you get on that plane to New England:
  • Find out the restrictions and rules in both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you book.
  • Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
  • Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it straight on the scanner yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for X-ray scanning.
  • Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
