Aland Island Holidays

With the continuation of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling today comes with a few more challenges than usual. Make a note of these worthwhile tips before hopping on your flight to Aland Island:

• Before booking anything, find out if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking government travel advisories.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA employee will require you to adjust your mask for ID purposes.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, you should place the pass on the reader and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
• Remove items from your pocket, like your phone, keys and wallet, and place them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• If you're planning to take food through security screening, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.

In order to limit contact between travellers and flight crew during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of airlines have taken social distancing and other strategies to the skies. An example of these are:
