Hala'ib Triangle Holidays from NZ$2,090

COVID-19 has changed how the world works in a profound way, including our approach to travel. The following tips will help you navigate the new challenges and prepare you for your escape to Hala'ib Triangle:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking anything. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as mandatory quarantining.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to temporarily lower your mask for identification purposes.
• To reduce the potential of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
• TSA is now allowing 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 screening.
• Place any personal items (keys, wallet and phone) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during screening.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA employee will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
