COVID-19 has affected how the world works in many ways, including how we're able to safely travel. The following tips will help you understand the new challenges and prepare you for your holiday in Northwest Bulgaria:
  • Before locking in your flight, check if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your origin and destination. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking government websites.
  • Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for identification purposes.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will need to be removed from your bag for X-ray screening.
  • Place any personal items (like your phone and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
