If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice new rules and restrictions in place. Take note of these tips and make your trip to Dubai Desert go off without a hitch:
  • Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
  • When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied boarding.
  • Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it straight on the reader yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for screening.
  • Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening.
  • If you want to take food on board, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
