Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to Sumatra due to COVID-19?

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Sumatra during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 outbreak has ushered in dramatic changes to the way we travel. If you plan to jet off to Sumatra, these tips will help you navigate these new travelling challenges:
  • Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as mandatory quarantining.
  • When you go through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly to confirm your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may be denied entry or boarding.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, position your pass on the reader and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You're 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 scanning.
  • Put any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • If you're planning to take food on the plane with you, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
