Vembanad Island Holidays

With the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling now comes with greater challenges. Take a look at the following tips before jumping on your plane to Vembanad Island:

• Before locking in your flight, check if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing government websites.
• You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask for identification purposes when asked.
• To reduce the likelihood of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
• You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. You'll need to remove it for X-ray scanning.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, place items such as your wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• Transport your food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
