Alta Badia Holidays

With new restrictions and safety precautions to adhere to, travel looks a little different at the moment. Here's what you need to know before you fly off to Alta Badia:

• Research if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check before you lock in your flight.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to adjust your mask for identification purposes.
• Do not hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, you should place the pass on the scanner and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on bag. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for scanning.
• Put any personal items (like your phone and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA employee will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
