The COVID-19 outbreak may have changed the way we travel, but it hasn't halted our appetite for exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with the new challenges of travelling:

• Research what, if any, rules or restrictions apply to both your destination and origin. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check before you book your flight.
• You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
• To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
• You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray screening.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, put items such as your loose change and phone into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
• If you're bringing food through the screening checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
