  • Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking your flight. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied boarding.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, you should position the pass on the reader and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on baggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag for scanning.
  • Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
