The COVID-19 outbreak has transformed how the world works in all kinds of ways, including how we're able to travel safely. The following tips will help you better understand the new challenges and get you ready for your flight to Zipolite:
  • 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 need to follow on arrival, such as mandatory quarantining.
  • When you pass through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to briefly lower it to confirm your identity. Travellers who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
  • To reduce the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • 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 X-ray screening.
  • Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening.
  • If you're planning to take food on the plane with you, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
