What are some of the general tips for travellers to Canadian Rockies during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world in all sorts of ways, including how and where we travel. The following tips will help you better understand the new challenges and prepare you for your journey to Canadian Rockies:
  • Find out the restrictions and rules in both your destination and origin. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so remember to check before you book.
  • You're required to wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
  • Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • 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 remove it from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • To reduce handling during the screening process, put items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
  • Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open your bag for inspection.
