If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you'll notice a few more rules and regulations in place. Take note of these tips and make your trip to Nantucket Island go off without a hitch:
  • Before you lock in a flight, check if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by checking government websites.
  • You're required to wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, you should place the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. This will need to be removed for X-ray screening.
  • Place any personal items (like your phone and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Food items often set off the alarm. Placing them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
