Right of Rhine Holidays

With new rules, restrictions and safety measures to follow, travel looks a bit different in this day and age. Here's what you should know before you fly off to Right of Rhine:

• Investigate if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you book.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for identification purposes.
• Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, place it straight on the scanner yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on baggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for X-ray scanning.
• Empty your personal items from your pocket, like your phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during screening.
• If you're bringing food on board, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
