The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about substantial changes to how we travel. If you're planning a holiday in East Coast, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:
  • Research what rules and restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check before you book your flight.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Travellers who refuse to wear a face mask may be denied entry or boarding.
  • Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it directly on the scanner yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray scanning.
  • Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
