What are some of the general tips for travellers to Lake Eyre Basin during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic may have changed how we travel, but it hasn't shut down our desire to explore. Here are a few tips on how to tackle travel's new challenges:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking your flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as installing a contact tracing app.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for identification purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, position your pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag and presented for screening.
  • Put any personal items (e.g, wallet, keys and phone) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to touch and inspect your belongings.
