Upper Palatinate Forest Holidays

COVID-19 has transformed how the world works in endless ways, including how we're able to travel safely. These tips will help you navigate these new challenges and prepare you for your escape to Upper Palatinate Forest:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking your flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
• You're required to wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked.
• Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag and submitted for screening.
• Place any personal items (e.g, wallet, keys and phone) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA employee will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
