COVID-19 has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't stopped our passion for exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with the new challenges of travelling:

• Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for ID purposes.
• Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed from your bag for scanning.
• To minimize handling during screening, place items such as your loose change and phone into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• If you're planning to take food through the screening checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for closer inspection.
