What are some of the general tips for travellers to Northern Queensland during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 outbreak has changed how we travel, but it hasn't deterred our love of exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with travel's new challenges:
  • Before committing to anything, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing government and airport websites.
  • Requirements state you must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
  • Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection.
  • You can take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. You'll need to remove it for X-ray scanning.
  • Empty your personal items from your pocket, such as your small change and phone, and place them in your carry-on instead of into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
  • Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
