Stock Island Holidays

The COVID-19 outbreak has affected how the world works in all kinds of ways, including how we can travel safely. These tips will help you navigate these new challenges and prepare you for your holiday in Stock Island:

• Know what, if any, restrictions or rules apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check government advisories before booking.
• When you go through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly for identification purposes. Anyone refusing to wear a mask may be fined and denied boarding.
• Do not hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, you should position the pass on the reader and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag for screening.
• Remove personal items from your pockets, such as your phone, keys and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA agent will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
