What are some of the general tips for travellers to Ring of Kerry during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't curbed our passion for exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with the new challenges of travelling:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking your flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll have to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
  • Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to lower your mask temporarily for identification purposes.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position your pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • Put any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
  • 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 employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
