What are some of the general tips for travellers to Outer Hebrides during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 has transformed the world in countless ways, including how we travel. The following tips will help you understand these new challenges and prepare you for your escape to Outer Hebrides:
  • Before booking your flight, see if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get the latest updates by reviewing government and travel websites.
  • When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly to confirm your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, place your pass on the scanner and then hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA now permits 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 and presented for screening.
  • Remove items from your pocket, such as your wallet, phone and small change, and place them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will reduce handling during the screening process.
  • If you're bringing food through the security checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
