Shire of Wondai Holidays

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling today comes with a few more challenges. Cast your eye over these helpful tips before hopping on your flight to Shire of Wondai:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking anything. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to briefly lower it for identification purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
• To reduce the possibility of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA employee.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for X-ray scanning.
• Put any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
• If you're bringing food through the screening checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for closer inspection.
